Alps Mountaineering Trail Tipi Tent

The key to comfortably covering long distances of trail is to keep your pack weight as low as possible. But with many super high tech ultralight tents being a bit on the pricey side, it's time to look to the technology of the past for the backpacking of the future. It turns out, a tipi is a darn good design, and if you already hike with trekking poles, why carry around an extra set of poles just for your tent? The Alps Mountaineering Trail Tipi Tent is one of the lightest tents you can get at the price point. It uses a poleless system supported by stakes and a trekking pole to comfortably provide room for two plus gear at night, and disappear into your pack during the day.
