A super lightweight, surprisingly spacious shelter for three backpackers or cyclists. Even paddlers should find it sleeps them in the style to which they are accustomed. The wedge-shaped design with upper crosspole provides generous headroom and supports double doors and twin vestibules. Windows at either end allow early morning sky surveillance to see if it's time to start or to sleep in.
Many ultralight shelters use very light fabrics throughout, including the floors. However, the waterproofness of these floors may abrade away long before the rest of the tent wears out. The Apollo floor is slightly heavier, but significantly more durably waterproofed. The fly is sexy, superlight, silicone-treated nylon. In sum, the fabrics are strong where strength belongs, and light where that's right.
