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.
