Zpacks Altaplex Tent -  is the ultimate choice for solo backpackers seeking a versatile and reliable shelter. This single-person tent is designed with simplicity and functionality in mind.

Setting up the Altaplex is a breeze, requiring just a single trekking pole, typically adjusted to 142-147 cm. In windy conditions, it's recommended to use 10 stakes (minimum 6) for secure anchoring, ensuring your peace of mind in challenging weather.
One of the standout features of the Altaplex is its storm doors, which can be independently opened for ventilation or securely closed for rain protection using metal hooks. You won't have to worry about door zippers failing over time, a common concern with many tents.

Inside the tent, you'll find ample vestibule space, perfect for stashing wet gear behind the closed storm door. The screen door features a convenient rainbow zipper that drops inward, staying out of your way. Even when the doors are open, the canopy overhangs the floor and screen doors by 12 cm, providing excellent rain protection. For added convenience, Stick-on Magnet Toggles are available to upgrade the door closures.

The tent is thoughtfully designed to prevent condensation from reaching the floor with its sloped screen. It boasts a solid 20 cm tall bathtub floor, offering plenty of space for both you and your gear. You'll also appreciate the mesh pocket near the door, keeping your essentials within easy reach.

One notable advantage of the Altaplex is that it doesn't require a separate groundsheet, although flat groundsheets are available if you prefer added protection. This tent is highly wind-resistant and can withstand gusts up to 100 km/h. The Dyneema Composite Fabric used in its construction is not only incredibly lightweight but also naturally waterproof and free from harmful chemicals.

Zpacks stands behind the quality of their gear, offering a two-year limited warranty on all their products. And to top it off, the Altaplex Tent is proudly made in the USA, ensuring quality craftsmanship.

In summary, the Zpacks Altaplex Tent is a lightweight, single-person backpacking tent that embodies the spirit of ultralight outdoor gear that Zpacks is known for.
