Frequently Asked questions

What's the difference between a Freestanding and Semi-Freestanding ultralight backpacking tent?

A freestanding tent has poles that extend down to all internal four corners, holding them under tension. A semi-freestanding tent has poles that extend down to two corners, but two other corners need to be staked out to provide tension. Semi-freestanding tents are lighter than freestanding models.

What's the difference between 3 Season and 3+ Season ultralight backpacking tents?

Sea to Summit's 'Plus' models have nylon fabric (rather than mesh) inner walls which prevent breezes from entering the inner tent. Each model also a higher-spec (more waterproof) floor.

What size sleeping pads fit in the 1, 2, and 3 person backpacking tents?

Alto and Telos are designed for tapered (not rectangular) sleeping pads. Here are then number/sizes of mats each tent will accommodate: Alto TR1: 1 x Large | Alto TR 2: 1 x Large, 1 x Regular | Telos TR 2: 2 x Large | Telos TR 3: 1 x Large, 2 x Regular.

Which Sea to Summit tent is best suited for bikepacking?

The Telos TR 2 Bikepack is an excellent bikepacking tent - it has great space and ventilation, and packs really compact (especially the poleset, which has short segments).
