Who is out there that is making backpacking tents in the US?  Tarptent is out of the running they have started moving their manufacturing to China and Hong Kong.

Damn shame about Tarptent.  I'm glad I've got what I need for the foreseeable future.


I'm a little out of the game but I'm sure there are a few cottage makers around.

Yes it is.  I was ready to buy a Double Rainbow then I discovered they shifted production for some tents to Asia.  I called them and sure enough that tent was one of them.  Their reasoning to me is bullshit but it is their company not mine, so I look else where.  The Seek Outside Eolus is looking promising.
