ALPS Mountaineering Vertex 2 Tent

The Vertex 2 is a freestanding dome tent and uses a pole system that allows the walls to be more vertical to give you increased headroom when sitting inside the tent. The extra headroom is really nice to have if you end up spending much time inside your tent because of bad weather. We use aircraft alloy aluminum poles that are strong and lightweight. Assembly is really easy with the tent clips that just snap in place over the poles. The polyester fly and nylon floor are urethane coated, with factory sealed seams for maximum weatherproofness. The 2 doors make getting in and out of the tent much easier, especially in the middle of the night when you need to take a quick "break". You also get 2 vestibules (one over each door) that you can use for extra gear storage. The vestibules also serve as automatic guy-out points when the weather gets a little nasty, and since they have been designed to be a little larger than normal you will be able to keep all of your gear out of the rain. The fly buckles to the tent, offering a much more secure attachment when compared to elastic cord. Mesh roof vents increase ventilation and improve star gazing. Mesh storage pockets and a gear loft are included for organizing your stuff. Stakes and guy ropes are included. Base Size = 5' x 7'6". Center Height = 46". Vestibule Depth = 32". Tent Area (sq. ft.) = 37. Vestibule Area (sq. ft.) = 25. Tent & Fly Wt. (lb.-oz.) = 5 - 15. Total Wt. (lb.-oz.) = 6 - 13. Packed Size = 6" x 22".
