Hey guys, I have been asking about tipis tarps and shelters. I am looking to make a basecamp, spike camp setup. One comfortable and the other smaller. I have something similar to a supertarp already. It would make a comfortable basecamp, or could be used as the spike camp either way. I am considering these 3-
SO Silvertip
27oz / Just under 9' hex shape / 57" high / 275$
Stove capable
Silvertip Ultralight two person Tipi
TiGoat Vertex 5
21oz / about 9.75' x 8.5' oval shape / 60" high / 255$
Stove capable
TiGoat Vertex5
Bearpaw Luna 2 (silnylon)
21oz / about 8.75' x 5.25' rectangle / 58" high / 260$
Product Luna 2 Page
The Silvertip seems awesome for a basecamp but doable for a spike camp too. heaviest, but still light. Seems doable with 2 guys and a stove.
The Luna 2 is the same weight as the Vertex 5 for about half the size. I dont mind the size, but think it should be lighter. I do like the efficient rectangle shape though. Seems aweful small for a stove.
The TiGoat might be my favorite so far. The size seems good for 1 guy basecamp, or small enough for a bivy without needing a lot of flat ground. And the weight seems killer but I think it is a lighter material. However, I dont know if it really matters. Seems like a good one guy/stove size.
Any thoughts to narrow this down?
