My question is just how much air circulating thru under the cover will be
enough to prevent condensation and dripping etc. I camp here in the Pacific
Northwest too and am familiar with backpack tent condensation - even Gortex
requires a tent fly or some inside fabric drip absorber.
Has anyone experience with condensation and control medthods?
