Tents, Tarps, and Shelters

Alto two-person is a semi-freestanding tent perfect for weight-conscious backpackers who still want a high degree of livability in their shelter. The revolutionary Tension Ridge architecture of the Alto allows for taller oversized doors and vertical walls that create an unrivalled amount of space. Apex Vents positioned at the highest point of the tent effectively expel moist air and minimize condensation, and the variable rainfly can be rolled back on both sides for stargazing, then deployed quickly from inside the tent. ‘Alto’ is the Italian word for ‘high’. One night will prove that the Alto is a level above other ultralight tents Tent Type: Semi -Freestanding Floor Area: 2.51 q m / 27.0 sq ft Weight: 1.18 kg / 2.59 lbs Vestibule Area: 1.67 sq m / 18.0 sq ft Floor dimensions: 215 x 135 x 96 cm / 84.5 x 53 x 38 in.
