Tent recommendations

[Matt]

- always buy plenty of seam sealer and seal all the seams immediately. dont wait to see if it leaks on your first outing ( ME ) .
- make sure it has a nice , large rainfly system. dont wait till 2am and its raining to install the rainfly because you didnt think it was going to rain ( SAL ) LOL

This made me crack up!

lol thanks for the advice guys. Any recommendations on makes/models that you have had good luck with?

Also a little FYI, this isn't really going to be a "family" adventure tent. I'm thinking more along the lines of going to Rausch Creek more and not staying at the hotel.
