The Mountain Hardwear Mineral King 2 Tent is a freestanding, double-wall dome for two, built around a pair of DAC Pressfit aluminum poles – a recognized pole brand known for consistent quality control. The fly and floor are both 68D polyester rated to a 1500 mm PU coating, with factory-taped seams throughout.
Floor space is 3.07 m² (223 x 137 cm) with a 109 cm peak height and two vestibules totaling 1.7 m², yielding 1.54 m² of floor per person and a 55% vestibule ratio for gear storage. The full-mesh inner tent favors ventilation, and five interior pockets, six stakes, and guy lines round out the included hardware; a footprint ships with the tent.
At 2278 g trail weight and 2649 g packed, it sits in the mid-weight bracket for a freestanding 2-person tent – not ultralight, but the taped seams and DAC pole quality suit backpackers prioritizing weather margin over minimum grams.
