Expedition Tents by Alps
The Taurus is a simple 2-pole freestanding dome tent that is enhanced with 2 doors and 2 vestibules, which is probably why it's been ALPS best selling tent model for the last several years. The Taurus 2 AL is identical to the Taurus 4 AL except that it is a 2 person tent. ALPS uses aircraft alloy aluminum poles that are strong and lightweight.
Assembly is really easy with the tent clips that just snap in place over the poles. The polyester fly and nylon floor are urethane coated, with factory sealed seams for maximum weatherproofness. The 2 doors make getting in and out of the tent much easier, especially in the middle of the night when you need to take a quick 'break'. You also get 2 vestibules (one over each door) that you can use for extra gear storage. The vestibules also serve as automatic guy-out points when the weather gets a little nasty. The fly buckles to the tent, offering a much more secure attachment when compared to elastic cord. Mesh roof vents increase ventilation and improve star gazing. Mesh storage pockets and a gear loft are included for organizing your stuff. Stakes and guy ropes are included. Base Size: 5' x 7(c)'. Center Height: 46 inch Vestibule Depth: 32 inch Tent Area (sq. ft.): 37 Vestibule Area (sq. ft.): 20. Tent & Fly Wt. (lb.-oz.) 5 - 12. Total Wt. (lb.-oz.): 6 - 10. Packed Size: 6 inch x 22 inch
