Using the 1P Cirriform SW on my recent Tour Divide shakedown felt like coming full circle. I first conceived of it on the Divide 14 years ago, and we made a DCF version that was one of our favorite shelters we've ever built. When we moved away from DCF, the SW went with it. I'm thrilled to bring it back, and this time in silpoly.
The floor, mesh, and fly are one integrated piece. There's no separate inner to clip in at camp, and though it's slightly more prone to condensation than the double-wall DW, having everything integrated in a single-wall design provides more interior volume for less weight. I really enjoy the simplicity of it.
