That's great to hear. I've not done a thru nor any hike of more than a week, so it's great to have confirmation (again) that with a modicum of reasonable care they can go the distance. October 2018 I spoke with a couple of guys in the vicinity of Bald Pate shelter, where Grafton Loop Trail in Maine runs briefly concurrent with the AT, and they were not far from finishing their second thru with Zpacks Duplexes, both made with the .51 DCF. They said that with about 350 nights or more on each of them they were just about spent, which demonstrates that these DCF tents/tarps should last a heckuva long time for the average weekender like me.
