Description

The Alto TR 1 Plus semi-freestanding tent provides maximum livability for the solo backpacker who is active right to the ends of shoulder seasons.

Vertical walls, a tall, oversized door and the same functional details as the standard Alto combine with materials that will keep you warm and dry in windier and wetter conditions. Whenever you camp, you’ll have more usable space, better ventilation and more versatility than any other ultra-lightweight tent – because ‘going solo’ shouldn’t feel like ‘solitary confinement’.

DESIGN DETAILS

Tension Ridge architecture delivers a better space-to-weight ratio than any tent in its class.

Powerhouse Collaboration

How it started

"When we decided to take on ultralight backpacking tents, I knew who I wanted to collaborate with—master tent maker Jake Lah.

Jake is the father of modern tent architecture, and his company DAC produces some of the best aluminum poles in the world.

Both of us are driven by producing something better than what’s already out there—and I think we’ve achieved that with our ultralight backpacking tents.

The Alto and Telos deliver exceptional height and space—and are loaded up with unexpected features like adjustable venting and our unique Hangout Mode. They are, quite possibly, the most livable ultralight backpacking tents out there."

-Roland Tyson, Founder & Head Designer at Sea to Summit

SET-UP GUIDE

Frequently Asked questions

What are the differences between regular and plus models?

The Alto Plus tent has a nylon inside fabric with unzippable vents rather than mesh to keep cold air from getting into the inner tent. The Plus model also features a more waterproof floor (2500mm against 1200mm).

Does '3+ seasons' mean it can handle snow?

While the Alto tent is designed for use up to the end of shoulder seasons, it's not built to withstand heavy snow loads and should be guyed out in winds above 20 mph.

What does 'semi-freestanding' mean?

Rather than needing to secure a tent with poles attached to every corner, a semi-freestanding tent may only need one pole to hold up the structure and reinforced with stakes at the corners. Semi-freestanding tents are lighter weight and have smaller packed-volume. 

Our Alto tents have a lighter poleset than the Telos, but they need to have the corners staked out at the head end.
