HT-24, 25
Eureka Backcountry 4 Tent

HT-24 and 25 are Eureka! Backcountry four-person dome tents. The three-pole freestanding design helps with the ease of set-up.

Historical reviews for this tent were very favorable. A number of folks were even using it as a two-person tent with lots of space, but the eight pound weight could be a deterrent for backpacking. An alternative to dome tents are HT-3, 4, or 5 which are the Eureka! Timberline 4 A-frame tents. My preference is towards dome tents due to the greater internal openness, but the A-frames offer several more inches in height. The market direction also appears to favor dome tents as the more common design.

In order to protect the club's investment, please use a ground cloth, take the time to make sure the tent is dry, cleaned out, and zippers closed before folding, and return the stakes separately.
