Marmot 2020 Tungsten UL 3P Tent

With more weight saved on this new version you get a quality, freestanding ultralight tent from Marmot. The Tungsten 3P UL Tent lets you travel lighter on the trail without having to sacrifice living space.

Marmot says:

More space means more comfort, and the Tungsten Ultralight 3-Person Tent delivers without adding extra weight to your pack. Zone pre-bend construction creates vertical walls for plenty of sleeping space and headroom for stretching out. “Easy pitch" clips and poles make it easy to set up quickly. If a downpour hits, the seam-taped bathtub floor ensures you'll stay dry and resists pooling, and the rain-shield flysheet won’t stretch out if it gets wet. Stash your pack, poles, and other gear in the two vestibules and tuck a headlamp into the UV lampshade pocket.

Marmot's 2020 Tungsten UL 3P Tent is an even lighter weight version of Marmot's best-selling original Tungsten UL 3P tent. It maximizes liveability while keeping weight at a point that caters to backpackers. This lightweight freestanding tent has a more roomy sleeping area and tons of headroom thanks to an intelligent pole construction that creates vertical walls.

Extensive mesh on the walls and ceiling ensure excellent ventilation and keeps condensation to a minimum. Both the fully weatherproof rain fly and floor are seam sealed and the catenary cut of the floor keeps the edges of the tent away from the ground in wet weather.

Employing integrated color-coded clips, the tent body attaches quickly, easily, and securely to the poles, creating a freestanding design that enables you to set up the tent and then move it around your chosen campsite to find the optimal rock and root free position.
