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.

Rugged Watch With Detroit Soul: Shinola Duck Watch Review
  It was 2:30 a.m., still a couple of hours until my alarm would wake me from my slumber to chase turkeys in the Colorado spring hunt. Annoyed, I sat up and started whacking the ceiling to clear the snow and keep a collapse at bay. But I glanced again at the watch, impressed by the lume, the only thing I...
A Bigger, Better AllTrails Debuts ‘Peak’ Tier and 6 New Features
  Smartphones dont make most lists for hikings Ten Essentials. Maybe thats because they are so deeply embedded in our daily routine that nobody has to remember to pack them. The reality is that smartphone (and smartwatch) activity apps are here to stay, and the first choice for many. At the summit of these hiking apps stands AllTrails. Real-time navigation on...
Latest Strava Updates Use AI to Recommend Routes, Level Leaderboards, and More
  The weekend comes, and theres an urge to shake up your routine. Its time to take a long run or ride to new places. That often takes tinkering on a map and can eat into riding time if you havent planned ahead.   Then comes the urge to just wing it, which can be fun —unless you end up riding down...
The Ultimate Outdoors Companion Just Got Brighter: Garmin Instinct 3 AMOLED Watch Review
  Let me tell you now, before the nitty-gritty, there are many who assume the Garmin Instinct 3 AMOLED is something it is not. It is not just a cheaper version of Garmin’s Fenix smartwatch — that watch is designed for your Indiana Jones heading on expeditions. The Instinct line is designed for outdoor enthusiasts who love hiking and backpacking on...
YETI Adds All-Weather Muscle to a Daypack: Introducing the Cayo
  We carry backpacks to keep things within reach, be it a laptop, a change of clothes, or water and snacks. But not all packs are comfortable to carry, and fewer still can claim to protect your belongings from rain, sleet, splashes, and general wetness.   Enter the YETI Cayo Backpack. It is a weather-resistant, rugged-bodied pack for carrying daily essentials and/or...
Midnight Mariner Review: Luminox’s ‘Most Luminous’ Watch Is Clean, Classy Wrist Candy
  A 1,000-horsepower turbocharged V6 screamed past and faded away as quickly as it had approached. The unseen Formula 1 machine was turning hot laps ahead of qualifying inside the Miami International Autodrome. Meanwhile, I navigated a security checkpoint and began the upstream swim through a river of Ferrari red, McLaren papaya orange, and dark blue Red Bull outfits.   I, a...
‘Star Wars’-Inspired Airbike Prototype Channels Childhood Dreams With 124mph Jet System
  Its no coincidence that the first video ad for the Volonaut Airbike was published just before May 4, a.k.a. Star Wars Day. The videos aesthetic will be immediately familiar to anyone with even a passing familiarity with the science-fiction franchise. Since the first film debuted in 1977, hover bikes speeding across the Tatooine desert have captivated the imaginations of fans...
Down and Dirty With the ‘Filthy 13’: TUUL Watch Review
  Sandboarding is really, really dirty. There is a lot of falling, rolling, and tumbling down giant dunes. And if youre keeping track of time, your wristwatch will get kind of thrashed about. I couldnt think of a better place to test a wristwatch that is tool to the core, the TUUL Filthy 13.   With a name like TUUL, its pretty...
Gorgeous Sound & Damn Near Everything-Proof: Turtlebox Ranger Review
  The Turtlebox Ranger makes no sense to me. As a lifelong musician, I always thought it was self-evident that high-quality audio means sensitive equipment. Improvements to durability must inevitably come at the cost of aural clarity — or so I believed.   My experience with the Ranger blows those assumptions out of the water. This speaker shakes off as quickly as...

This streamlined approach also reduces the watchs heft and price.      Runners will appreciate the sleek design and weight of 36 g; (photo/Suunto)...
BougeRV Rover2000 Review: Power Station Shines With Semi-Solid-State Tech, Serious Solar Input
  We were near the top of our first rocky pass on a weeklong overlanding trip through the San Juan mountains when it dawned on us: We’d entrusted our lives, or at least our ice cream and margaritas, to a magic box that, along with solar panels and an electric cooler, converts energy from a distant flaming ball of hydrogen into...
Crisp and Clear for $100: Celestron Outland X 10×42 Binoculars Review
  As a kid, my parents encouraged me to use my imagination and explore the countryside. Everything around me was farmland, filled with barns attached to rolling hills that popped out of fields that stopped at the horizon. After breakfast, I would get on my bike with my backpack filled with everything I needed to explore for the day. My mom...
