we had an Oregan 5 & it was brilliant. The time has come to replace it.

Should we get another Oregan 5 or a Trout Lake.

Have looked at the Trout lake & like the look of the SIG but concerned about the weight of it & drying time.

Doesn't the Trout Lake have a ZIG?  

My personal preference would be polycotton rather than nylon any time if I could afford it.  Yes they are heavier, but (IMHO) worth it.  Re drying, we took our Bear Lake down in heavy rain.  When we got home, we hung over the upstairs bannister for 2 days, moving it every so often ... dry as a bone

Yes, trout lake is zig,

I would personally go for the trout lake but I would purchase at the end of the season. Retailers seem to be getting greedy, this tent was over £100.00 cheaper last year, so end of season should see some reductions.

have bought a bear lake 4 in the end from SK camping in East Grinstead. Same sort of size as Trout lake but square front and porch. Can't wait to try it out now
