The detailed description states that this is a 4 season tent. However, the specs state that it is a 3 season tent. Can you confirm whether it is a 4 season tent?

G'day Caitlin,
Technically speaking the Fortress is a 3-4 Season Tent. They're suitable for Australian winter conditions, however, they're not purely a 4 season tent as to be classified as a four-season they need to withstand snowy conditions, including snow, ice and high winds. The Fortress won't quite do all of that, but they do have a solid polyester inner.

Hi, I can't seem to find a footprint online for this tent. Does the tent come with one at all? If not, what is a compatible brand that can be bought in Australia? Thanks

G'day Sean,
I've just double checked with the Australian Marmot supplier and they don't bring the Fortress model footprints into Australia. There are probably two options you can look into, the Marmot Tungsten 3P footprint will fit, to an extent, not exactly but very close. Alternately you may be able to find a retailer in the USA with a Fortress 3P footprint who are willing to ship to Australia.
