Product Description

Six Moon Designs Skyscape Trekker

28 oz – 790 g Solo Backpacking Tent Dark Green

The Skyscape Trekker is our most versatile solo tent. With a floor over 8 feet long, you’ll have plenty of room to stretch out – no matter your height. Its’ convenient two-door setup provides lots of external storage under the vestibules. Both vestibules can be configured in different ways or rolled back to open up the tent to over 300-degree views. The Trekker is also our longest shelter with a floor that stretches over 8ft. The canopy and floor of the Skyscape Trekker are both constructed of Silicone Polyester. Silicone Polyester fabric has been the workhorse of fabrics used to build ultralight tents for the last decade. Its main properties are its strength and light weight. Silicone Polyester construction is impervious to mold or mildew. The Skyscape Trekker is the perfect choice when you want to be light but don’t want to give up the room you need to stretch out for a good night’s rest.

Important Information Regarding the SkyScape Trekker

The following items are required to set up your Skyscape Trekker but are not included: Tent pole: Dual 45″ Poles required (not included). Stakes: 5 required (not included). Also, be aware that to completely repel water, your Skyscape Trekker will need to have sealer applied to the seams before use. (Its seams are not sealed or taped). We recommend McNett Seam Grip + Sil (SilNet) found on Amazon.

Overview

The Skyscape Trekker is constructed with 100% Silicone coated Polyester material. The Canopy is 20D material and the floor has been constructed with 40D material for additional strength. The canopy stretch has been decreased along with the packed volume. The Skyscape Trekker now features longer 3mm cord rear guy outs (not shown in photos) which provide improved interior height at the foot and increased ventilation at the rear. All guy lines are now also reflective.

The Skyscape Trekker utilizes a dual fixed length 45″ or 115 cm pole support structure to create an A-frame like structure. This can be achieved through the use of trekking poles or our collapsible Aluminum or Carbon Fiber Poles (Sold Separately). While both poles work well, the aluminum poles are less expensive, but our Carbon Fiber poles are half the weight of the aluminum poles.

The Skyscape Trekker’s dual pole structure is slightly offset from the center of the tent. This offset yields extra headroom when lying down, reducing that claustrophobic feeling. Further, it allows the Skyscape Trekker to be extremely rigid when guyed out, creating a structure capable of riding out the worst storms.

The Skyscape Trekker employs Hybrid Double Wall construction. Over 80% of the canopy is separated from you by a mesh wall, keeping that wet canopy at bay. The Hybrid Double Wall construction allows the vestibules to roll back. On warm summer nights, convert the Skyscape into a net tent; pesky bugs stay outside while you enjoy the view and breeze from inside.

The Skyscape Trekker’s large side entry door lets you easily enter the tent or retrieve gear. With a floor-length over 100 inches, the Skyscape Trekker accommodates the tallest hikers. You can carry a light tent and still sleep well.
