By Abigail Scott
I'm Abigail Scott, an author, adventurer, and mother of three. When I'm not navigating the beautiful chaos of motherhood, you can find me tackling the turbulent waters as a professional whitewater kayaker or scaling impressive rock faces as a climbing guide. The rush of adrenaline, whether from kayaking or climbing, is a feeling I cherish deeply. But the thrill doesn't stop there; I capture the breathtaking allure of nature through my lens as a professional photographer. And when I'm not submerged in the wild, my software engineering skills amplify my outdoor pursuits, allowing me to harness technology in unique ways. Through my writings, whether articles or blog posts, I share not just my adventures but my heart, hoping to spark a flame of inspiration in others to break boundaries and experience the world's wonders.

Why We Love the AC 2 Tent
The AC 2 Tent by Mountain Hardwear is a versatile and lightweight shelter designed for all seasons. Whether you're mountaineering, winter camping, or backpacking in the alpine, this tent is a favorite choice.
The tent's ripstop fabric is not only durable but also features ruggedly waterproof coatings, ensuring excellent weather protection, especially when it's snowing.
Thanks to the innovative DAC Featherlite poles, the AC 2 Tent weighs in at just three pounds, making it incredibly lightweight. Mountain Hardwear's proprietary pole sleeves, known as Evolution Tension Arch, provide both stability and additional weather protection.
One of the standout features of this tent is the full-wall front door, making entry and exit effortless. Additionally, the door includes a mesh window to enhance airflow during more favorable weather conditions.
For extra ventilation, the AC 2 Tent is equipped with two additional mesh windows. This ensures optimal airflow even when the weather isn't cooperating.
