Wait out storms more comfortably in the Minibus 23 Tent from The North Face that provides larger interior volume with a relatively compact footprint size. Revel in its roominess while you stay comfortably dry, protected by a polyurethane-coated fly and fully-taped bathtub floor. This product was selected for the Outside Magazine 2009 Buyer's Guide. f09back
Features:
- Keep dry with the fully taped, polyurethane-coated nylon taffeta bathtub floor and siliconized nylon fly with a polyurethane coating
- Enjoy more shoulder and head room when you sit up thanks to the near vertical inside height made possible by the C-Clip pole system that connects the 2 parallel poles to the 2 brow poles giving you more interior volume without adding floor area
- Reduce your pack weight with durable, yet lightweight DAC Featherlite NSL poles featuring reverse-combi technology that alters pole tension to maximize interior space
- Setup is much easier with a fully color-coded pole, canopy and fly pitch system with lightweight, easy-to-use twist clips for the canopy pitch that are fast on the setup and take down
- On stormy nights, keep gear dry in the 2 vestibules and easily add the color-coded flysheet attachment, then zip up the 2 D-shaped doors with glow-in-the-dark door toggles
- Keep the canopy taught and your tent stable in windy conditions with a Jake's Foot at the tent corners; take note of the weather through the large, clear polyurethane window
- Stow your headlamp, sunglasses, and other gear in the internal pockets or hang loops, or add on the The North Face Gear Loft #2 for additional stowage options
- Keep essential items close by with The North Face's inside-outside pockets that allow you access from inside the tent or from outside when you're in the vestibule - protection and versatility
