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.

  Stakes and poles sold separately.

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.

A ‘Spa on Wheels’ That Needs a Digital Detox: 2025 Lincoln Navigator Review
  In hindsight, the first car I ever drove on the highway was kind of a risky choice. I nearly totaled my dad’s early-2000s Ford Excursion that day. In my defense, that huge and pendulous SUV still reigns supreme as the biggest ever made.   But modern three-rows appear to be creeping up pretty close to the infamous Excursions these days. And...

2025 Mitsubishi Outlander Trail Edition Gets Cladded Up for Adventure
  Mitsubishi has just added an outdoorsy version of the Outlander to its lineup. The 2025 Mitsubishi Outlander Trail Edition doesnt add much in the way of extreme trail-ready features, though.

Comfortable Urban Style Built for Mountain Adventures: Seniq Tectonic Women’s Pant Review
  Pants give me trust issues. My preferred athletic activity involves long hikes in the wilderness with limited opportunities to swap out gear when gear malfunctions. So, the last thing I want is a seam that chafes against my inner thigh or swampy skin from absorbent fabrics.   So, when I wore the Seniq Tectonic Pants to hike a Colorado 13er, I...
