Gossamer The One

The One by Gossamer Gear is an ultralight shelter/tent for one person that can be set up with two hiking poles. Minimalist in design, this tent is spacious and weighs 510 grams. It features a bathtub-style floor and is single-walled on one side and double-walled on the other. The fabric is 10-denier ripstop nylon coated with silicone and resistant to a water column of 1800 mm. The seams are sealed.

Its asymmetrical shape offers a large interior space and excellent ventilation. On the vestibule side, a mosquito net doubles the main fabric and protects against insects. On the other side is a ventilation system. The vestibule is large enough to store gear.

The sleeping area is spacious, measuring 84 centimeters wide at the head and 54 centimeters wide at the feet, with a height of 1.14 meters. This is comfortable for mattresses and tall people. The outer door can be opened completely thanks to a buckle located near the ground.

Très simple à monter, ce tarp nécessite a minima 6 piquets (fournis). Deux haubans sont également fournis et il y a d’autres points d’ancrage, ce qui permet une meilleure résistance au vent et une optimisation de l’espace intérieur. Les bâtons de randonnée sont à régler à 125 centimètres.

Des détails sont très appréciables : poche à l’intérieur, possibilité d’installer un fil à linge à l’intérieur, haubans et tirettes réfléchissants, système d’attache des bâtons à la tente, inclinaison des bâtons qui offre un meilleur espace intérieur…

Very easy to set up, this tarp requires at least 6 stakes (provided). Two guy ropes are also provided and there are other anchor points, which provide better wind resistance and optimize interior space. The hiking poles should be adjusted to 125 centimeters.

Some very useful details include: an inside pocket, the option to install a clothesline inside, reflective guy ropes and zippers, a system for attaching poles to the tent, and an angle for the poles that provides more interior space.
