Why Choose the Ascend Nine Mile 2 2-Person Backpacking Tent?

• Premium Quality: Made with 68D 190T polyester taffeta body (uncoated for breathability), no-see-um mesh panels, and a seam-taped 68D 190T polyester taffeta floor with a 3,000mm PU coating. The seam-taped rainfly (68D 190T polyester, 1,500mm PU coating) includes adjustable air vents. Lightweight, non-freestanding 7001-series aluminum poles with shock cords ensure a sturdy frame.
• Versatile Use: Ideal for backpacking, hiking, or minimalist camping for two. Dual side-entry doors with zippered vestibules offer easy access and dry gear storage. Combine with the Ascend Nine Mile 2 Floor Saver (item 2273877, sold separately) for a minimalist rainfly setup.
• Distinctive Properties: Offers large mesh panels for ventilation and stargazing, with a full-coverage rainfly for weatherproofing. X users praise its lightweight design and quick setup, though some note the non-freestanding design requires stakes, limiting use on rocky terrain.
• Convenient Size: Floor dimensions: 86"L x 60"W (7.2' x 5'); center height: 42"H. Packed size: 17"L x 6"D. Yields ~35 sq ft of floor space, fitting two sleeping pads or one double airbed. Includes compression stuff sack, aluminum stakes, pole repair sleeve, and reflective guy-out cords with tensioners.
• Additional Features: Interior mesh organizer pockets for gear storage. Reflective guy lines enhance nighttime visibility. Quick setup with color-coded webbing and quick-attach pole clips.

Effortless Setup & Comfort

The Ascend Nine Mile 2 sets up quickly with color-coded webbing and quick-attach pole clips on lightweight aluminum poles. The dual side-entry design and two zippered vestibules provide convenient access and dry storage, while mesh panels ensure ventilation in warm conditions. Customers appreciate its packability and durability in light rain and wind, with one reviewer noting it “stood up to gusty winds in the Rockies.” For added floor protection, consider the Ascend Nine Mile 2 Floor Saver (sold separately). Store in a cool, dry place when not in use, avoiding hot, humid environments like car trunks to prevent seam damage.
