It seems the zPacks Hexamid was also DCF?? ?I googled it and found an old review that mentioned "cuben fiber." ?According to google (again), cuben fiber is the same as DCF. ?Since you had a DCF tent, did you find it super noisy or plastic-y? ?When I read Lange's and your descriptions, I imagine a fine, thin material that will need to be babied, but that will also shave off a good pound of weight compared to the non-DCF version. ?

As an aside, when we first got our Copper Spur UL, we thought THAT was a light, thin-walled tent. ?Now, that is too heavy!
