The opinion of Aventure Nordique
The Vern 2 nylon with stove jack from Norwegian brand Nortent is a spacious, durable tent for 2 people in 4-season use. One awning has a passage for the stove pipe. Self-supporting geodesic shape.
The outer fabric is 30-denier silnylon ripstop. Seams must be coated with Seam Grip+Sil for perfect waterproofing. Dyneema reinforcements in the areas where the hoops pass provide extra strength and durability. The 70-denier nylon floor withstands a water column of 10,000 millimeters. The 5 aluminum poles (diameter 9.5 millimeters) ensure that the tent stays in place even in strong winds and snow. They are color-coded for easy identification during assembly. Set-up is very simple, taking just a few minutes once you've got the hang of it. You can do it yourself. The chamber is attached to the double roof, so you can get to safety as quickly as possible. The 24 sardines and 14 guy wires ensure secure anchoring.
The Vern 2 is very well ventilated. Firstly, there are 4 air vents on the doors and 2 more at the bottom of the tent ends. Oxygen supply remains good when using a wood-burning stove. The 2 inner room doors are lined with mosquito netting if it's hot or you need extra ventilation. The 2 apses each have 2 doors. Depending on the weather conditions, you can choose to open all the doors to be very close to nature, or close them completely for maximum protection.
The generous dimensions of this tent allow it to accommodate 2 mattresses (190 x 60 centimetres) and equipment in the bedroom (equipped with 4 pockets). The 2 awnings provide ample space for cooking, a stove and storage. The tent weighs 4.6 kilograms.
