This pioneering single-wall tent provides all the protection and living space of a large tent, plus the ventilation, compactness, and weight savings of a tarp shelter. Easy to pitch, the tent can be set up by one person and in less than 3 minutes by using trekking poles or guy cords tied off to an overhead object.
Two-person access is achieved by a huge front door that allows for side-by-side interior access. An innovative front awning allows 180-degree views, while a covered food-prep/boot-storage area keeps miscellaneous items away from the sleeping compartment.
