8 Person
4 Season Mountaineering and Expedition

A proven base camp shelter on Himalayan and polar expeditions.

    Specifications:
  • Sleeps: 8
  • Season: 4 season, Mountain
  • Weight: 12.9kg minimum, 14.1kg maximum
  • Packed Size: 35x90cm

A truly awesome tent for group and expedition use at high altitude. All year round the Cosmos is a superb choice.

The geodesic design sleeps 8 in comfort and features 2 porches for access with 2 additional ‘doors’ allowing entry and exit with out climbing over gear. It's surprisingly easy to pitch with colour coded poles and continuous pole sleeves, easily managed by just two people. A great tip is to have someone inside the tent to lift the poles once they have been sleeved. this makes it easier to locate the pole ends in the eyelets.

Great ventilation and you have the option of specifing zipped cook holes in the floor (please contact us before purchase), making the Cosmos perfect for base camp use in hostile environments.
