The Tropics 1 is a 3.9lb (1.75kg) solo shelter engineered for dual-deployment backcountry sleep systems. Integrated corner straps allow for standard ground pitching or secure mounting directly onto camping cots. This modular geometry provides elevated moisture protection.
Cot-Integrated Geometry:specialized corner tension straps and buckles securely anchor the 84.6 x 31.5in (215 x 80cm) footprint to standard camping cots for elevated, mud-free sleeping.
Dry-Pitch Mechanics:the pole architecture permits rainfly-first assembly, ensuring the breathable B3 mesh inner tent remains completely dry when setting up during heavy rainstorms.
PU3000 Weather Shield:the 20D nylon rainfly provides a 3000mm hydrostatic head rating, delivering robust storm protection while keeping the total payload at a manageable 3.9lbs (1.75kg).
Pack-Optimized Transit:the 7001 aluminium pole system collapses into a dense 21.1 x 5.5 x 5.5in (53.5 x 14 x 14cm) cylinder, optimising cargo space in motorcycle panniers or backpacks.
