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.

The Staple Denim Work Jean Since 1947: Wrangler Cowboy Cut Slim Fit Jean Review
  From the beginning, Wrangler’s goal was to create the worlds best five-pocket jeans. The women’s 14MWZ Cowboy Cut jeans have the same seven iconic features paying homage to the inaugural pair: the rope logo button, deep watch pocket, seven belt loops, flat rivets, downward facing seams, a logo patch, and the “W” stitch on the back pockets.   Wrangler knows how...
A High-End Crossover Shell: Rab Khroma Latok Ski Jacket Review
  It’s hard to find one ski jacket for all the conditions you’ll encounter riding at ski resorts and in the backcountry. A shell that can hold its own against subzero storms on a resort ridgeline is usually overkill when spring touring in full sun in the 50s. Still, ski apparel brands are game to try, and Rab’s Latok is a...
Polaris Launches Its Most Powerful and Capable SxS Models Yet: 2025 RZR Pro Lineup

In fact, Polaris won its first Dakar Rally this year, winning the SSV class with a vehicle based on an RZR Pro R Factory.   Events like the Dakar Rally demand so much from any machine.

Olympic History: Watch Texas Teen Scorch Speed Climbing World Record
  An 18-year-old from Texas just set a new world record for speed climbing at the 2024 Paris Olympics. American athlete Sam Watson just broke his own world record on his way to the quarter-finals of the speed climbing competition, which will conclude on Thursday.   It was a stunning response to Indonesia’s Veddriq Leonardo, who had matched Watsons speed record of 4.79 seconds with...
Better Fit for Better Skiing: Fox River Bootfitter Elite Ski Sock Review
  When my ski boots disappeared on my feet, I knew my feet, liners, and shells were working in harmony. My toes weren’t cold, and my feet weren’t slipping and sliding inside the liners. And that’s saying a lot — my feet are exceptionally challenging to match with ski boots.   Socks are the foundation of your winter skiing kit, and they’re...
Lightweight 50/50 Ski Boots: Nordica Unlimited LT 130 DYN Review
  A ski boot that tries to be everything for everyone often ends up being good for no one. But buying two pairs of ski boots — one for the ski resort, one for the backcountry — is expensive. So, there’s obviously a financial reason to consider crossover ski boots. Like most hybrid ski boots, the Nordica Unlimited LT 130 DYN...

Coupe-Utility Vehicle? 2025 Genesis GV80 Eyes Sport-Luxury Sweet Spot
  Rain pattered outside as I relaxed into a lower-back massage, rolling from my lumbar down toward my hips. My companion had already selected mood lighting to accentuate the environment and was now fiddling with an array of calming scents before activating the aroma diffuser.   It was an odd experience, considering I was driving and sitting next to a complete stranger....

Luckily, cute baby aliens from The Mandalorian arent the only option for those looking to spruce up their Garmin.   The brand just announced a significant upgrade to its Connect IQ marketplace, enabling...
Zippy Commuter E-Bike, Packed With Tech: Orbea Diem 20 Review
  There are e-bike cruisers that dabble as commuters and commuters packed with features like fat tires for off-road exploration. There are even full-tilt mountain bikes decked out with lights and racks for maximum versatility.   Among this littered field, the Orbea Diem is a much more purpose-driven machine whose components feel custom-tailored for urban commuting rather than skirting the line between...
Janja Garnbret Is the Simone Biles of Climbing: You Need to See It to Believe It
  Every Olympic Games brings us a small handful of iconic moments. Often, these moments come from athletes so dominant in their sport that they stand out even among the best competitors in the world.   And, as this years Paris Games have already shown — its not always about winning a gold medal.   Brazilian surfer Gabriel Medina captured the worlds attention...
