Description

Alto one and two-person is a semi-freestanding tent perfect for weight-conscious backpackers who still want a high degree of livability 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

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).

Will a 200 x 64 cm pad fit in this tent?

You can just squeeze a large rectangular pad into the Alto TR 1 (it was primarily designed for ultralight backpackers who generally use smaller pads).

Worth the weight difference over a bivy shelter?

We think so. The Alto gives you room to sit up, excellent ventilation (so almost no condensation) and a vestibule to store wet gear - all of which you won't have in a bivy shelter.
