Lightweight Floorless Side Entry Shelter Options

[brn2hnt]

Looking at adding a lightweight, floorless shelter for steep and deep type trips next year.

A supertarp or similar design is the obvious solution, but I hate, hate, hate, front entry shelters.

What options are out there aside from SO in this department?

Zpacks PocketTarp. 6 oz. Love mine. "Side" entry by my definition.

Can you pitch it all the way to the ground?

Definitely. I have a removable net with bathtub for non winter camping here. Too many bugs otherwise. Not necessary in winter or other locations. There I add a 3 Oz Dyneema bathtub for an 11 oz shelter, including the pole.

Here it is pitched flat to the ground and up way off for max ventalation.
