Urgh star-nosed moles are pretty much my only fear. God imagine twenty of those fuckers running towards you. What the fuck kind of benevolent God would create a piece of shit like that?

To be fair, he did bury them under the dirt. :)

I made a thread on /out/ a while ago and never got a good answer so I figure I'll ask it again.
I want to get a one-man tent for backpacking but I'm not really sure what to do. So there's the smaller ones like we normally see in the continental US where you put the poles in the inside then put a raincover on the outside. The benefit to this is that you can take the raincover off and get the wind blowing through the mesh windows so it's ok for hot weather. Then there are the ones like I've used in the north where you put the poles into the outside and then strap the part that you sleep in into that. It's way better for rain, snow and insulates better but you can't get a breeze because it won't stand up without the rain cover.
Does anyone know of a tent that's more versatile?
I'm planning on spending the summer in California (probably the mountains) so it could get pretty hot, and then I'm going to be the arctic for a while in the fall, and hopefully patagonia in the winter. It'd be nice to get something that's all-weather even if it's expensive but I could just get a couple nice ones.
