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.

Horizon Fitness 7.0 AT Treadmill Review: No-Frills Workhorse for Home Training
  There are three kinds of treadmills: those that show up covered in flashy screens and boast more subscriptions than your streaming services; others that are so wobbly and unstable you feel like youll bust through the platform with each stride; and there are those that just let you run.

These 10 Places Have the Darkest Skies in the U.S. for Stargazing
  First it was the moon, then it was cloudy, then it rained. I’d been waiting five days for the Oregon skies to light up. Then around 10:30 on a cold April night, the clouds lifted, and the constellations swung into view. Auriga was already rising in the west, with its brightest star, Capella, gleaming against the black. Leo was directly...
Struggling Chrysler Celebrates 100 Years, Looks to the Future With New Design, CEO, and Direction

What was once a major automaker is today just one of the weakest of 14 brands comprising Stellantis.   And that’s raising questions about whether it will survive as a new CEO takes over the Euro-American automaker. If Chrysler does have a...

The 2025 Outside Festival in Denver Was Electric. Here’s What You Missed.
  At first, the breeze felt wonderful—a blast of chilly air to dull the afternoon heat.   It was Sunday, June 1, and I was standing at the entrance to Denvers Civic Center Park, welcoming guests to the Outside Festival, clad in my sweat-stained volunteer t-shirt. In front of me, 15,000 or so guests swarmed the park. Some crowded the main stage...

‘The Last Dive’ Follows a Diver’s 20-Year-Long Friendship with a Giant Manta Ray
  Sailors have been known for telling tall tales. So when Terry Kennedy, a now 83-year-old sailor, would talk about swimming with his friend off Mexico’s remote Revillagigedo Islands in the late 1980s, it’s understandable why some questioned if it was all  true. The charismatic friend he was always going on about was, after all, a 22-foot giant manta ray.   This...
