High-altitude mountaineering requires a stable, wind-worthy shelter--the Spire combines these attributes in a simple, lightweight design.
- The Spire boasts Evolution Tension Arch™ technology, dual doors and vestibules and a trail weight of less than 5 pounds
- For strength, a system of non-stretch panels map the tent's main tension lines along the poles and down the side panels to the main guy points
- These panels act as a fabric truss structure that resists deformation by holding the poles in a stable arch
- Compared to traditional tent fabrics that stretch and allow poles to bend, this truss structure reinforces the poles with the tent body structure
- Atlas Scandium XL™ poles are very light, super strong and completely field serviceable without tools
- Additionally, these tough XL poles come with subzero Shok™ cord and heat-treated aluminum threaded pole tips
- Dry-entry vestibule design prevents water from dripping inside tent when vestibule is open, improving livability
- Trim floor design fits well on narrow ledges and snow platforms
- Internal guy system provides additional rigidity to the structure by creating resistance to the flexing/ deformation of the frame
- All exposed seams are welded or taped and waterproof, so there is no need for seam sealing
- Water-resistant, inverted, double rainfly zippers allow ease of ventilation
- Gated Power Clips at all pole intersections increase structural strength
- Large stake out loops accept both skis and snow pickets
- Bar-tacked stress points add strength and durability; bias-bound zippers allow ease of use and extended zipper life
- Welded mesh storage pockets help keep things organized inside
- Other technical features include reflective guy-out loops, reflective zipper pulls, welded guy clip anchors and Super-light™ buckles and webbing
- Reflective starter points make setup in the dark a breeze
- Expedition-adjustable fly attachment features a tough snap-hook, aluminum O-ring and buckle system for easy use with gloves
- Pitch Light Option: Fly, poles and footprint (sold separately) pitch without canopy for an ultralight shelter
- Includes stuff sacks, aluminum Y-pegs and owner's manual
- Average minimum weight specification is based on tent, rainfly and poles only
Mountain Hardwear's Watertight Construction: Thoughtful design, taping and welding technology combine to make this tent watertight off the shelf. No seam sealing is required.
