SilTarp Plus Shelter

$209.95

Description

　　An advanced shelter structure for those who don’t want to carry the extra weight of a tent. The Rab SilTarp Plus Shelter offers generous protection to a solo mountain traveller or ideal for small teams travelling fast and light.

　　A flexible and lightweight alternative to a traditional tent. Versatile and durable, it can be easily stashed, pulled out, and setup up quickly, weighing in at just 510g (without guys and pegs) and packing down to 25cm x 16cm. It offers substantial shelter for you or your team on an overnight bivi, with a closed back wall and small porch section.

　　The tarp is made from tough, siliconised 30D Cordura with a PU coating. Ultralight and waterproof, it’s incredibly strong with a taped, catenary ridge seam to keep the tarp taut, allowing rain to run off smoothly and preventing flapping in the wind. The eight guy points are reinforced for strength, and with four central lifter points there are a variety of setup options available. This tarp includes nine pegs and six guy lines.

Footprint sold separately.

Keen’s First Trail Runner Is Designed to Last 900 Miles: Seek Review

　　As I was packing for a week of climbing and hiking in France, I faced a challenge. I had to fit everything into a single carry-on. When it came to choosing the one pair of non-climbing shoes I would bring, without hesitation, I reached for my KEEN Seek Trail Runners. The comfort and support of these shoes made them the...

‘From Dirt’: Meet the Conservation Volunteers Stepping Up Amid Government Shutdown & Budget Cuts

　　The trails in Americas parks, monuments, and public lands need conservation help now more than ever. With unending budget cuts, staffing issues, and now, a government shutdown paralyzing government-funded agencies, many trails stand to fall into disrepair. Thats where volunteer conservation groups like the Eastern Sierra Conservation Corp (ESCC) step up to fill the gaps. 　　Since 2016, this small but...

This Trail Trainer Changed How I Run: Craft Xplor Pro Review

　　A light rain began just strides into my first test run in these road-to-trail shoes. I hadnt yet made it to the trails, and the sidewalks were already slick. I approached the corner of a city block, ready to make my usual shuffle step before a 90-degree turn at the end of the sidewalk. Yet, rather than feeling a little...

‘See Naked’ Slopeside: Pit Viper’s BN5000 Goggles Claim to Enhance Peripheral View

　　Hair metal and 80s glam rock might be dead, but Pit Viper is upholding the spirit in style. The brand, known for its goofy, off-the-wall throwback aesthetic, isnt just about looking cool, either. Its innovating with its designs, striving for equal parts function and fashion. The brands latest release, the BN5000 goggle, is a prime example. 　　On October 7, Pit...

Proven Voice Calling for Far-Flung Expeditions: Iridium 9555 Satellite Phone Review

　　Blasted with gusts of cold air and early April snow, we stared in awe as the glacier ski plane taxied down the Ruth Gorge and took off. Suddenly, we were alone. Thankfully, we found comfort knowing that within the 5 weeks of supplies we had with us, we brought an Iridium 9555 Satellite Phone to keep in touch with family...

Outdoor Adventure and the Art of Self Reliance, with Nick Offerman

　　Ruggedness, dependability, and handiness define a lot of outdoor archetypes, from the ski patroller to the river guide to the park ranger. So why would you find all three in a famous actor? Maybe because the actor in question—Nick Offerman—is an avid outdoorsman in his own right. Surely you know Nick from one of his many memorable roles, like Ron...

Yours for the Next Decade: Flylow Chemical Men’s Ski Pants Review

　　My home mountain range outside of Vail, Colo., is notorious for challenging tree skiing due to pokey or fallen beetle-kill pines. I’m used to my ski outerwear torn and tattered by scraggly branches. But wearing the updated Flylow Chemical mens ski pants felt like leg armor. The burly main fabric and reinforced knees fended off sharp sticks and rocks. That...
