Alpine-style ascents require your gear to be as versatile as your skills. Enter the two-person Tenshi tent from NEMO Equipment, an ideal base-camp and higher tent that offers everything you need for a trip up the mountain. The tent starts with a cavernous vestibule that offers 10 square feet of shelter for your gear, along with a condensation curtain that isolates respiration in a small portion of the tent to prevent frost buildup. The beefed-up guy points, reinforced pole pockets, and DAC Featherlite poles, meanwhile, make the Tenshi all but indestructible. Perhaps the most valuable feature from a climber's point of view, however, is the lightweight design, which weighs a mere 4 pounds and fits on the smallest of ledges.
The tent is also compatible with NEMO's Removable Insulated Floor (RIF), a custom-fitted interior liner that's constructed from closed-cell EVA foam. The RIF (sold separately) offers an excellent first layer of defense against the frozen ground while preventing the inevitable cold spots that occur between individual pads. Other details include a Sleep Tight Anchor Transfer (STAT) that prevents water from seeping in; multiple internally deployable vents that keep air circulation going at all times; a rear window that lets you keep tabs on the weather without getting out of your sleeping bag; an Osmo waterproof/breathable shell; and 28 square feet of sleeping space. The recipient of several awards--including "Editor's Choice" from Climbing and "Best in Gear" from Rock and Ice--the Tenshi is the clear choice for high-altitude adventures. The Tenshi measures 86 by 45 by 47 inches (W x H x D).
