About The Product
Ultralight versatility. The Escapist Evo Tarp pitches easily with trekking poles, secured via circular bar tacks and adjusted from under the tarp using line tensioners at reinforced points. Upgraded for 2026, the Ultra-Sil LS fabric absorbs less water, stretches less, and dries faster—delivering a taut pitch in any weather. A catenary cut reduces edge flutter in wind. Refined and versatile, it’s a high-performance shelter for those going truly ultralight.
Features
- Easy, secure pitching - circular bar tacks hold trekking pole tips while adjustable guy lines tension quickly at reinforced tie-out points
- Improved weather resistance - Ultra-Sil LS 15D nylon/30D polyester ripstop reduces water absorption, dries faster, and ensures a tighter, low-stretch pitch
- Rapid tensioning - reinforced tie-out points with adjustable line tensioners enable precise pitch control and optimal fabric tension
- Stable in high winds - catenary cut minimises fabric flutter and maintains a taut pitch when wind speeds increase
- Dual-use storage sack - reinforced stuff sack attaches to tarp and functions as a pole pocket for branches or paddles when poles aren’t available
- Versatile overhead setup - central hang loop enables suspension from branches for alternative pitch configurations
- Tangle-free packdown - attached toggles let you quickly remove guy lines for faster, cleaner tarp storage
- Add insect protection - optional Escapist Mesh Bug Shelter easily attaches and suspends from the tarp for full coverage in buggy environments
- Lower impact materials – Ultra-Sil LS fabric is recycled, bluesign APPROVED and non-PFAS
