Description
A huge, bombproof shelter for high-altitude base camps and big mountain expeditions. With 108 square feet of interior space and head height of 7 feet, there's room for everyone to meet, eat and plan a summit push. 8 people can comfortably crash and store their mounds of expedition gear. Add the optional gear shed vestibule to create an extra room for supplies or up to 4 more people. The strong, single-wall structure is built to resist winds and snow loads, at at under 28kg it should qualify as checked bagged on most airlines.
- 150-denier polyester fly, 68-denier polyester floor. Both have a durable ether-type polyurethane coating and a DWR finish that breaks down slower than conventional coatings.
- UPF 50+ coating for sun protection on expeditions.
- Strong crossed pole structure is made of 7000-series aluminum and stands up to high winds and snow loading.
- Reinforced guy-points for security in rough conditions.
- Doors have closeable mesh windows, and doors can be removed for ventilation or gear loading.
- Clear side windows let you keep a weather eye on the horizon.
- Removable bottom panel makes it floorless so you can dig down to create headroom or use for a kitchen and not worry about spills.
- Large interior pockets store bulky items like down parkas.
- Packed weight and size meet the checked baggage regulations of most international airlines.
- Optional vestibule (sold separately) adds additional storage or sleeping space.
- Stakes and guylines not included, choose your own to suit the expected conditions.
