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.

Investigation: Spring Energy Products Contain Less Than Half of Claimed Calories
  The original version of this story was published on iRunFar.   Spring Energy’sAwesome Sauce gel was a product that seemed too good to be true.   A staple in many ultrarunners’ nutrition plans, it promised to deliver high carbohydrates and calories in a small package of easy-to-digest applesauce-like gel. The 180-calorie gel offered nearly double that of its competition, with 45 g...

Get One While You Can: Mystery Ranch x SITKA Studio Ryder Bow Case
  Few things go together quite so well as Mystery Ranch and SITKA. It only makes sense that the two Bozeman brands would team up, yet again, for the release of a much-needed upgrade to soft bow cases.   Ive had a few soft bow cases, and Ive never been impressed with any of them. Theyre oversized, offer odd, inconvenient storage, and...
Climbers Weigh In on Nims Purja Following Sexual Abuse Allegations
  Leading figures in the worlds of international mountaineering and Nepali politics are weighing in on celebrity climber Nirmal “Nims” Purja in the wake of bombshell allegations of sexual assault and harassment.

Wicked Edge Generation 4 Pro Sharpener Review: Stupid Sharp, Simple, and Steeply Priced
  A universal oddity of any hobby: justifying the gear prices to those on the outside. Mountain bikers get to explain why their dream downhill bike costs more than a motorcycle. Ultralighters get to explain to casual hikers why a pack that taps out at 15 pounds costs several hundred dollars. For knife aficionados, there’s justifying a sharpener that starts at...
Talk to This Headlamp, and It Listens: Coast RL35R Review
  Its pitch black in a canvas wall tent at night, and I softly speak two words, Coast on. Almost instantly, a beam of light shoots from my headlamp, illuminating the inside of the tent. Then, a snicker from the neighboring cot.   Coast off! Coast disco! The laughter crescendos, and of course, the light turns off. Fortunately, there is no disco...
I Abandoned My Favorite Headphones for These Hi-Fi Workout Buds: Jabra Elite 8 Active Review
  While some folks are content listening to whatever the gym is playing during their workouts, I just cant do it — unless somebody is playing Wu-Tang. Ive got to be able to change it up to suit the moment — heavy lifting calls for heavy metal. On cardio days, I like to match the BPM of the music to my...
Finally, Women Mountain Bikers to Compete at Red Bull Rampage
  Red Bull Rampage has come a long way since 2001, when a ragtag group of freeriders first gathered in the Utah desert to show off their best stunts.   But when this world-class mountain biking event returns to Virgin, Utah, in October, it will feature something new in its 23-year history: women riders. Red Bull announced the change with a brief,...
