4 season, what seasons, where, and 1 person or a 20 persons tent????

There are Mountain tents for the alpine environment, But none will hold up to what a Igloo will. In Guam a 4 season tent is a hamock.

I have a real nice tent, I used it snow camping at Creater Lake in January. It has two vestibules and is roomy for two people, three if you dump gear outside. You might check out REI, Mountain Gear in Spokane, or?

Here I am outdated again. Ponchos always worked. You'd be surprised at what two people can contrive.

Do y'all still have those things.

I've replaced the ponchos with those blue tarps that cost about $2.00 for an 8X4 at Discount Stores like Walmart. I pack them in my ATV's for survival use only. They come equipped with grommets that make them easier to string up than the poncho.
