Used only 5 nights, amazing tent but as it turns out because I am tall (6’3) it just ended up not being enough room for me. I actually fit in it but not much spare room.
Space
- X-Mid geometry provides more interior volume than any other 1P trekking pole shelter (46 vs 25 – 40 cubic ft) including incredible headroom and shoulder room.
- Best-in-class useable length makes it excellent for tall hikers up to 6’8″ while shorter hikers can store gear at the ends (the floor is 90″ and even the very ends are 15″ high).
- Generous 32″ floor width fits all pads with room to spare.
- Dual vestibules are large (11 sq ft) and tall for easy pack storage.
- Compact 98″ x 63″ footprint fits into smaller sites.
- Vestibules can be collapsed to fit into even smaller tent sites.
Protection
- Fly first pitch keeps the sleeping area dry during setup in the rain.
- Interior is protected from falling rain even when the doors are open.
- Fly extends low to the ground to block drafts and rain splatter, but can also be pitched higher for more ventilation.
- Door zippers are easy to operate, block drafts, and increase shelter rigidity compared to clip systems.
- Dual adjustable peak vents minimize condensation.
- Mesh drain and gutter system ensures even heavy condensation will drain out of the tent.
- Optional peak guyouts, side panel guyouts and 8 extra stake points around the base for severe conditions.
- Shape offers excellent performance in snow and hail by avoiding flat roof panels.
- 15D woven floor provides improved abrasion and puncture protection than a thicker composite floor.
- Ultra strong Dyneema® core guylines.

I will also include the guy lines I put together for this tent as well as the clips to attach them to the tent with.
I originally paid $618 to have it shipped to me to the US from Canada. The guy lines and clips totaled about another $20 so all total I have about $638 into the tent.
I will sell it for $550 which also include free shipping to anywhere in the US. As I said at the beginning I have only used it for 5 nights so its like new. I wish I fit in it better because it has everything I want in an Ultralight tent.
I will take Paypal or Venmo and first person who reaches out has first dibs.
Cheers, Mike

Hey Mike, I’m same height and can’t (I have an Altaplex but no headroom at all) find a UL tent that’s long enough. If you find the unicorn, drop me a note, thanks and happy hiking. duplexL?
Tarptent Protrail has all the length you need
I sent a dm, I am interested
is this tent still available?
