Check the EZ-Up website for a whole variety of pop-up frame supported
tents. I use one and like it ok. If weather is really nasty though, not
much of anything really works well. SAMS carry's an EZ-UP version that
is unique to them. Very popular among the outdoor art show and festival
crowd. For something heavier Ron Salmon at the Bus Depot has a really
nice one.

They seen to self destruct in a heavy rain which is when you most need them.  Though I am ready to buy a third one shortly, like this: http://www.llbean.com/llb/shop/50217?feat=2-SR0 I was also looking at this one: http://www.llbean.com/llb/shop/68617?feat=2-SR0 . Has anybody had any experience with that one? It looks like it might pack better in the back of the van, or even on the luggage rack, and may withstand the heavy rain better.  Any comments?
