- Innovative geometry removes the need for guylines over the doorways
- Waterproof sidewalls zip open to provide maximum ventilation and visibility; head and foot walls are mesh
- Large drop doors offer easy entry and exit, and create an open and airy feel
- 12-in. awnings provide dry entry and exit, deliver sun protection and allow for doors / windows to remain open during a storm
- Pitches with trekking poles (sold separately); slotted webbing along the front of the tent lets you move the grommet pole-tip connector as needed to make pitching easier
- Trekking poles with a minimum length of 120cm are recommended for pitching the tent
- Gear closet creates storage space where it should be—away from the door; it can be toggled closed or left open for additional venting, while staying dry in a rainstorm
- Gear closet panel can be rolled up and stowed for stargazing
