ALPS Mountaineering Tasmanian 3‑Person Tent

Product Description

ALPS Mountaineering Tasmanian 3‑Person Tent — Description The Tasmanian 3 is a rugged, all‑season camping tent built to reliably shelter up to three people — a solid choice for car camping, back‑country trips, or year‑round outdoor adventures. 🏕️ Key Features & Build Durable aluminum frame: Uses 7000‑series aluminum poles (with a continuous pole system plus an additional cross pole) that help keep the tent stable in wind and harsh weather. Freestanding, double‑wall design: The tent is freestanding (so you don’t have to stake it immediately) and includes a full‑coverage fly over a double‑wall body for enhanced insulation and weather protection. Weather‑resistant materials: The rainfly is a 75D/185T polyester taffeta with a 1500 mm waterproof coating, and the floor uses a heavier 75D/185T poly taffeta with up to 5000 mm waterproof coating — both with factory‑sealed seams. Ventilation & access: Two large doors — one at each end — both with zippered mesh windows, allow for easy entry/exit and good airflow. Spacious vestibules: Includes two vestibules (front and rear) for gear storage, boot area, or cooking — useful for keeping wet or muddy gear outside the main sleeping area. Extras for convenience: Comes with mesh storage pockets, a gear loft, aluminum stakes, guy ropes, and uses large #8 zippers for durability and ease of use. 📐 Size & Specs Sleeps: Up to 3 people Floor dimensions: 7′‑8″ long × 6′‑7″ wide Center height: ~54 in (4′ 6″) — enough to sit up comfortably. Vestibule area: ~21 ft² — plenty of extra storage space for gear/shoes. Packed weight: ~9 lb 10 oz — a reasonable weight for a 3‑person, 4‑season tent. Packed size: ~20 in × 7 in (compact enough for car camping or longer trips). ✅ Ideal Use & Who It’s For Campers who want a reliable, all‑season tent for car camping, weekend trips, or occasional backpacking — including colder weather or unpredictable conditions. Small groups or families (2–3 people) who want room for bags and gear (thanks to vestibules and storage pockets) without needing a large cabin tent. People who value durability, weather resistance, and ease of setup, rather than ultralight weight — good for comfort and convenience over minimalist backpacking. ⚠️ What to Keep in Mind While it's classified as a 4‑season tent and handles wind and rain well, it's a bit heavier than minimalist backpacking tents — so if you're hiking many miles, the weight might matter. The interior space is moderate for three adults; if all campers have gear or want comfort space, it might be tight — best suited for 2 adults + gear or 3 adults for short stays. As with many freestanding tents, vestibule space is used for gear/storage — you’ll likely store backpacks & boots there instead of inside the sleeping area.
