ALPS Mountaineering Meramac 2-Person Tent
The Meramac series tents are all free standing 2-pole designs with shock corded fiberglass or aluminum ferrules. The ferrules are the “connectors” that hold the poles together and we use aluminum, rather than steel, because aluminum can never rust. Our fiberglass poles are also normally one size larger than normal to offer you a sturdier, stronger tent. We use lightweight but strong polyester fabrics. The side walls are uncoated so the tent can “breathe” under the urethane coated fly. The fly uses a pole in the top, which gives you an awning over each door for excellent rain protection. Our fly is full length on the sides, not 3/4 length like some others, for better weather protection. We even have our factory seal the seams on the floor and fly for maximum water repellency. Entry and exit are enhanced with 2 doors, which means if you have to get out at night, you don’t need to crawl over the others to get to the only door. The second door is also nice for extra ventilation in hot, muggy weather. Our door zippers are a #8, which is one size larger than most, for extra durability. Mesh storage pockets and a gear loft are included to help you keep your gear organized.

Great tent for car camping Just got back from camping at June Lake in California (7,600 ft elevation). This tent was perfect! Plenty of room for two adults and a medium dog plus some of our gear including a dog bed, a large wool blanket, clothes and shoes. Very easy to set up, convenient pockets and hooks on the inside for hanging a lantern and keeping small things accessible. Before the first night, my boyfriend remarked that he wished the entire top was mesh so we could better see the sky, but we discovered that…
Great tent
