Building on the design advances made in the award-winning ultralight Telos Tension Ridge tents, Sea to Summit introduces the Ikos TR 2 Tent, which offers the same great liveability and versatile setup options for everyday backpacking and vehicle-supported camping. Tension Ridge allows a wide vent placed at the highest point of the tent, helping minimize condensation build-up. Four inner pockets and two gear lofts provide plenty of storage space, while machined-aluminum pole feet/rainfly C-clips make pitching easy. The rectangular floor (large enough for two regular rectangular sleeping mats) so you can spread out in this amazingly spacious home away from home.

• Tension Ridge raises the tent’s shape upwards for more usable head-and-shoulder space and creates truly higher doors for easier entry and more vestibule storage
• A DAC MX poleset supports a 68D polyester ripstop rainfly that is flame retardant-free and treated with a C0 non-PFC DWR
• Unlike most vent designs, the Apex Vent doesn’t require a mesh panel to maintain tension across the fly—allowing up to 70% better airflow, unrestricted by mesh
• Control airflow to manage humidity and condensation in wet conditions by opening or closing the Baseline Vents.
• Face one of the Baseline Vents into the wind for the most effective airflow
• Multiple configuration options means our tents adapt to the weather or your activity. Enjoy Fly Only Mode, Inner Only Mode, Dry Set-Up, Partial Fly Mode, Classic Mode
• Unique Quick Connect Foot means in wet weather you can set the fly up first and take it down last to keep your inner dry
• The inner mesh panels are engineered for maximum airflow while maintaining no-see-um and sandfly insect protection
• To extend the life of your tent floor it's recommended to use a Sea to Summit footprint - sold separately
