Mountain Hardwear Helion 2 tent breaks the two-person, four-pound barrier with its ultralight design, fabric and poles.

  • Offering livable space in a tiny package, it reduces features to an intelligent minimum, protects from the elements and won't fail under use
  • Atlas UL (ultralight) aluminum poles combine a variable-diameter tube with lightweight, tapered floating connectors
  • The result is a significant reduction in materials and weight, yet optimal pole flex and strength—tailored to the demands of the minimalist
  • Also, due to the flex and strength of the connectors these poles are shorter in length to stow more easily in a pack
  • Additional weight is trimmed by using sub-zero shockcord
  • Superlight hollow-core 25-denier ripstop nylon rainfly is the lightest Mountain Hardwear has developed to date
  • Superlight mesh canopy provides excellent ventilation; mesh doors feature convenient double sliders
  • Superlight 30-denier nylon floor uses silicon and polyurethane coatings to enhance strength and waterproofness and reduce stretch
  • Evolution Tension Arch technology uses a system of low-stretch fabric panels that reinforce the poles and add to the rigidity of the tent's structure
  • Superlight rainfly clips and a molded-grommet tab system attach canopy and rainfly to shave weight
  • Dry-entry vestibule design prevents water from dripping inside tent when vestibule is open, improving livability
  • Includes interior pockets, welded vestibule zipper flap and reflective guyouts; reflective starter points aid setup
  • Pitch Light Option: For an ultralight shelter, pitch the rainfly, poles and footprint (sold separately) without the tent body
  • Average minimum weight specification is based on tent, rainfly and poles only
