Description

  The Six Moon Designs Deschutes Tarp is an ultralight shelter designed to give you the most interior room while maximizing protection from the elements and minimizing weight. For people looking for a light shelter option with plenty of space and minimal weight, the Deschutes is a perfect fit! The Deschutes has 44 sq ft of coverage and a peak height of 49”. You've got plenty of room to sit up and the extra interior space lets you spread out your gear. The full-length vestibule zipper makes for easy entry. The simple pyramid structure is easy to set up and sheds wind and rain under the harshest storms.

  Constructed from tough but light Silicone Nylon, the Deschutes Tarp weighs just 13 ounces and is quite affordable. When mated with the Serenity NetTent (sold separately) you have a double wall solo tent that weighs a mere 24 ounces.

FAQ:

I'm over 6', will I fit?
That depends. There are many factors that determine if you'll be comfortable using the Deschutes. It depends upon the height of the setup, the depth of your sleeping pad and your sleeping style. Take a look at the picture of the Deschutes Tarp with the Serenity NetTent, the Serenity is 84" or 7' long and has vertical end walls of 9". Without the Serenity the height is 13" at the point where the Serenity would end. Using a thick sleeping mat will compromise internal space and minimize headroom. Also setting up the Deschutes low to the ground will do the same. However, properly set up, most people will find the Deschutes more than roomy enough for a good night's sleep.

What is the recommended Pole Height?
The Deschutes Tarp can be set up at different heights. At 40" the Deschutes hugs the ground, providing maximum protection. The Deschutes can accommodate a variable height of between 45" to 49 depending upon conditions and your personal preferences. For maximum interior space or using the Serenity NetTent, set your pole to 49". In most cases you'll want to angle your pole so the bottom is inside the vestibule area. This helps to maximize the sleeping area.

I Took the Off-Road Course Honda Gives Its Engineers: Here’s What I Learned
  For the second time ever, last month I flew to North Carolina to do some off-roading in the gritty southern mud.

Where Most Tents Fail, This Tarp Hunkers Down: SlingFin Cinder Cone Review
  Some years ago, in a pandemic-fueled frenzy, I dragged out my pyramid tarp shelter for some surgery. I wasn’t happy with a few aspects, but the main ask was for adjustable tensioners at the corners and mid-panel tie-outs for stiff winds. I’m no seamster, but the final product wasn’t half bad — at the expense of my sanity.   I now...

Sleek Design, Mega Power, and a Few Novel Ideas: 2026 Polestar 4 Review
  As I sink into the driver’s seat and adjust the rear-view mirror, I only see the back seat, no window to view the rear of the car. But flip the lever at the base of the mirror and transform it into an illuminated screen showing a clear, zoomed-in view of what’s behind.   I put it in reverse, and the 15.4-inch...

I Lived in This Merino Tee for 30 Days and It Never Quit: Ibex Naturalist Merino Wool Tee Review
  The funk really started to set in around week three, which, all things considered, surprised the hell out of me. I wore the Ibex Naturalist Short Sleeve Crew for an entire month this fall in a quasi-masochist endeavor to understand merino wool better, and despite some protest from my better half, it went a lot better than expected.   Merino wool...
