Can’t comment on the tents, other than to say Alpkit released a hiking pole supported tent recently as well? Seemed to get an ok reception and wasn’t too highly priced I recall. re poles bearbones will/can make custom length poles that fit nicely in a framebag/harness. I struggled with older tent poles that were just a little too long for a tarp, having a smaller pack size was much appreciated.

I'm thinking of getting a trekking pole tent, such as the Paria Arches 2P or even the Sierra Designs High Route and getting some inconsequential trekking pole substitute (Paria makes some for example) for it.
Seems way more affordable than a fancy ($$$) Nemo or Big Agnes, but should still pack down very small.
thoughts? Experiences?
