WOW! A single wall tent with a vestibule for wet gear, room to cook, and space to sit<br />

out a storm! Super sturdy and freestanding thanks to a new pole design*. Strength<br />

and aerodynamics make Polaris the perfect <strong>exped</strong>ition tent!<br />

< a<br />

> Fast setup: just slide<br />

3 color-coded poles into<br />

their sleeves and tension<br />

the pockets; secure<br />

and plant 2-4 stakes.<br />

That’s it!<br />

> Freestanding: The<br />

ridge pole tensions the<br />

tent along its length and<br />

forms the rear vent hood.<br />

Polaris<br />

Single wall <strong>exped</strong>ition grade shelter.<br />

c<br />

> Optional center<br />

pole: Storm capabilites<br />

are enhanced with<br />

an optional, „Polaris<br />

Center Pole“ (available<br />

separately).<br />

> Ingeniously crossed<br />

flat pole sleeves reduce<br />

wind resistance. Double<br />

stitched and taped<br />

parallel seams make for<br />

easy pole handling.<br />

a > Covered vestibule for gear and cooking.<br />

b > Ventilation and views on all 4 sides through door, rear window,<br />

and two offset tunnel vents.<br />

c > Easy handling, day or night: zippers have color coded, reflective,<br />

and glow-in-the-dark pulls that operate easily with just one<br />

hand.<br />

d > Reinforced guyline loops attach directly to the pole sleeves.<br />

Triple guyline flaps on the sides connect to the floor loop.<br />

e > Taffeta nylon floor with fully taped seams and a water column<br />

rating of 14+ PSI (10,000mm).<br />

f > Designed by experience: World class <strong>exped</strong>itionists like Erhard<br />

Lorétan, Jean Troillet, Stephan Siegrist, Sébastien Gay, plus<br />

numerous “regular” adventurers are godfathers to the Polaris.<br />

> Single wall fabric<br />

of highly breathable<br />

and ultra-waterproof<br />

eVENT® 3 layer PTFE<br />

laminate specific for<br />

tents. Vestibule of<br />

lightweight and tear<br />

resistant ripstop nylon<br />

with a slicone coating.<br />

> Fully freestanding:<br />

Full length ridge pole<br />

supports the structure<br />

and forms the vestibule.<br />

This makes Polaris a<br />

full, freestanding tent.<br />

Of course, such easy<br />

setup also means that<br />

teardown is fast and<br />

easy! And, for situations<br />

in which it is hard to<br />

stake out guylines, the<br />

poles can be braced<br />

together from the inside<br />

using the guylines.
