The Zion is a backpacking tent sold in one-, two- and three-person versions, all built on a rectangular floor that stays full width instead of tapering at the foot. Each size has two doors and two side vestibules, so tent mates enter and exit without climbing over each other and packs and boots stay outside the sleeping area. Trail weights run about 3 lb 3 oz for the 1P, 4 lb 2 oz for the 2P and 5 lb 1 oz for the 3P, which lets two or three people split the load to roughly 2 lb each. It suits campers who want living space and a second door more than the lowest possible weight; ultralight rivals shed ounces but usually give up a door, a vestibule or the full-width floor.

Rated 4.8 out of 5 across 150 ratings, the Zion draws praise for its space and its two-door layout. Owners treat it as a comfortable backcountry shelter rather than a featherweight one.
The Zion is a family of backpacking tents in 1-person, 2-person and 3-person sizes. Each has a rectangular shape that does not taper on one side. It has two doors, so you can enter and exit without disturbing your tent mates, and two side vestibules for packs and boots.
The Zion 1P is 37 inches wide and fits any one-person sleeping pad. The Zion 2P is 53 inches wide and fits two 25-inch sleeping pads. The Zion 3P is 70 inches wide.
The fly has 3,000 mm silicon/PU waterproofing with fully taped seams. The tent is made from rip-stop fabric and aluminum alloy. For an ultralight setup, pitch just the included footprint, poles and fly as a minimalist shelter. The 2P and 3P can be split between people, which works out to just over 2 lbs. per person.
