The X-Mid 2 Solid is Durston's two-person trekking pole tent, a closed-wall version of the X-Mid 2 built for cooler and windier conditions. It pitches with two trekking poles in a simple two-door, two-vestibule layout, and its dual-peak geometry sheds wind and rain well for its weight. The solid inner fabric blocks drafts and spindrift where the mesh version lets air through, so it suits cold-weather campers and exposed pitches. Against mesh rivals it trades some ventilation and condensation control for warmth and weather protection.
