Description

Alto TR2 two person is a semi-freestanding tent perfect for weight-conscious backpackers who still want a high degree of liveability in their shelter.

The revolutionary Tension Ridge architecture of the Alto allows for taller oversized doors and vertical walls that create an unrivalled amount of space. Apex Vents positioned at the highest point of the tent effectively expel moist air and minimize condensation, and the variable rainfly can be rolled back on both sides for stargazing, then deployed quickly from inside the tent.

‘Alto’ is the Italian word for ‘high’. One night will prove that the Alto is a level above other ultralight tents

DESIGN DETAILS

Tension Ridge architecture delivers a better space-to-weight ratio than any tent in its class.

Powerhouse Collaboration

How it started

"When we decided to take on ultralight backpacking tents, I knew who I wanted to collaborate with—master tent maker Jake Lah.

Jake is the father of modern tent architecture, and his company DAC produces some of the best aluminum poles in the world.

Both of us are driven by producing something better than what’s already out there—and I think we’ve achieved that with our ultralight backpacking tents.

The Alto and Telos deliver exceptional height and space—and are loaded up with unexpected features like adjustable venting and our unique Hangout Mode. They are, quite possibly, the most livable ultralight backpacking tents out there."

-Roland Tyson, Founder & Head Designer at Sea to Summit

Frequently Asked questions

Do I need to use a footprint with this tent?

The Alto has a very light floor, waterproof to 1200mm. It can be used on wet grass/undergrowth without a footprint. However, a footprint will protect the floor from damage on abrasive surfaces.

What does 'semi-freestanding' mean?

The Alto tents have a lighter poleset than the Telos, but need to have the corners staked out at the head end.

What are the differences between regular and 'plus' models?

The Alto Plus has a nylon fabric inner (with unzippable vents) rather than mesh to prevent cold air getting into the inner tent. It also has a more waterproof floor (2500mm against 1200mm).
