EP 117 - Stone Glacier Solus vs. Hilleberg Soulo Review & Raffle

To enter the raffle join https://www.mindful-reviews.com/ This review has been over 2 years in the making. I have put these two 4 season shelters from Hilleberg and Stone Glacier through the wringer spending more than 20 nights in each of them in temps down to -25c, -10f with upwards of 12”-16” snowfall on some nights. Both the Sky Solus and the Soulo are premium tents but they also both have their flaws. Watch this video to learn what worked for me and what didn’t with these two tents. 0:00 – Intro 0:55 – Raffle details 2:03 – A note on specialized shelters 4:20 – My personal experience with both tents 5:36 – Categories of comparison 7:45 – In the field footage 15:11 – Sleeping pad size comparisons 27:36 – Price 27:59 – Advertised dimensions 32:57 – Practical vestibule space 33:05 – Practical space inside the tent 34:15 – Tent fabrics 36:30 – Doors 37:23 – Weight & Weight honesty 40:59 – Tent pegs 41:17 – Ease of setup 42:11 – Build quality 42:35 – Pole quality 44:26 – Weather resistance 45:10 – Breathability/Condensation 46:10 – Heat retention 47:05 – Personal X factor 52:53 – Instagram Q&A 56:44 – Final scores Jay Nichol jay@mindfulhunter.com https://www.mindful-reviews.com/ https://www.mindfulhunter.com/ Merch https://www.mindfulhunter.com/shop Free Backcountry Nutrition Guide https://www.mindfulhunter.com/tools Newsletter https://www.mindfulhunter.com/contact IG https://www.instagram.com/mindful_hunter/ Podcast https://www.mindfulhunter.com/podcast
