Backcountry Description: As the high-altitude snow storms rage, stay dry and comfortable in The North Face's 4-Person, 4-Season VE 25 Tent. Dual doors with dual vestibules give you plenty of room for your stuff, and The North Face's true bucket nylon floor blocks snow and rain from entering your safe haven. Get to basecamp and set up the VE 25 Tent quickly with the no-hassle continuous pole sleeves and color-coated canopy and flysheet webbing. Once you're cozy inside, peer out the durable polyurethane windows to check on the weather conditions. Multiple guy-points steady the VE 25 Tent against harsh mountain winds, and The North Face's internal tent pockets keep your headlamp, watch, and midnight chocolate snack accessible. Unzip the internal vents and enjoy a cool breeze when the weather warms up.
RockCreek Description: The Ve 25 Tent from The North Face is the golden standard for a base camp mountaineering tent. You can easily fit three people or be extremely comfortable with two. The VE 25 is perfect for hanging out at base camp waiting for the weather to clear while playing cards or sitting up reading a book. Also great for winter backpacking, the VE 25 can easily withstand high winds and heavy snow loads. Two vestibules give you plenty of room to stash your gear and give you room to take on and take off your wet boots.
Altrec Description: Excellent for four-season use and any outdoor adventure that risks hunkering down in inhospitable conditions, The North Face VE 25 is the most popular expedition tent made by The North Face. With a trail weight of 9 lbs., 12 oz., it's considerably lighter than most tents in the expedition line and it offers considerably more space than the two-person Mountain 25 tent (many mountaineers opt for the advantage of a three-person tent for two people because they can capitalize on a little more space when they're hunkered down and waiting out storms). Like many of the best designed mountaineering tents, the VE 25 has an integrated polyurethane view window that's cold tested to -60F so you can check on the weather without compromising any of the warmth inside the tent. If things do get too muggy, unzip the adjustable mesh vents for bug-free cross ventilation. The guy-out points are numerous enough to weather big blows and the no-stretch Kevlar guylines with camming adjustments are ideal for pitching in open spaces. The VE 25 comes with internal storage pockets for gear, but if you really want to organize (and possibly dry out) your mountaineering and backpacking gear, get the fully-compatible #2 Gear Loft from The North Face.

Product reviews from Backcountry:
More then a one season tent | 
While this is one of the most bomb proof tents made for winter use, I use mine all the time in all seasons. It vents well, and I have used it in Hawaii as well as on the Green River in Utah. There are lighter tents for such uses, but if you want only one tent, this is the one. For high altitudes, regardless of season this is a great tent. Let the winds blow, just be prepared to take in others whose 3-season tents have blown down.The only down side is weight, hence only 4 stars.
