Wild Country Tents Unisex's Wild Country Zephyros 1 Tent, Green, One Size

Product Information

When you’re coming back to your tent in the dark or need to make sure you’re tent is visible in low light, the yellow guy lines are reflective as it’s the trim around the pole sleeves. Its tried and tested low profile design, based on the Terra Nova Laser Compact, helps shed wind in poor conditions. The only other change I made was to carry a small length of guyline attached to a small light plastic clothes peg. You may not want to pop your pet in there, but at least carry a small blanket to avoid their claws damaging your groundsheet. The best way to remove poles from their sleeve is to place the pole end against your hip and pull the fabric towards you.

The path is quick by bike from the main road, a little rocky in places and tyre choice being the determining factor in being able to ride it all. It's constructed from Polyester with a durable water repellant coating and taped seams to offer 100% waterproofing in all conditions. Although this will undoubtedly add some extra weight to your pack it is well worth carrying to give your precious tent the tender loving care that it deserves, after all it’s much easier to replace a footprint than a groundsheet.As it was my final day staying in the Cairngorms it was time for a ride up to Ryvoan Bothy, via that weirdly green Lochan, can never remember the name!

Ultralight also can come with a degree of fragility, and especially for UK conditions I’m happy to carry a little more weight and sleep more soundly on a sturdy groundsheet. Make sure to leave and end or corner at the top, so that you can easily peg it out if your next campsite is windy. One of the main benefits to using polyester is that it is less prone to UV degradation than nylon or other similar fabrics. Designed in the UK by the same team developing Terra Nova products, Wild Country products offer the perfect balance between affordability and quality. If you’re unfamiliar with Wild Country, these tents share the same designers as the British Terra Nova brand, although optimised for affordability and reliability, rather than lightweight performance.That is a fairly extreme comparison, but as cyclists we are often guilty of obsessing over both the weight of our equipment and of our bodies. This was used to keep the outer door open if good weather as there is no toggles or anything to do this, so the door just flaps about when open unless I am using the awning method. All equipment is tried and tested in a laboratory and in some of the most extreme environments on the planet, which gives Terra Nova the knowledge and expertise to create cutting-edge, pioneering products that will stand the test of time.
