The Megatarp should be available to order by weeks end..... but don't quote me on that
The Megatarp will have one sewn in entry and the other will except the Annex. The reason for this configuration was to make it more versatile for year round use. In the summer and early fall the sewn in door can be opened completely and the Annex left at home (for increased air/wind flow). This will still give you a large amount of room that will be completely protected from the elements, but an open end to glass out of when pitched in the right place.
Weight:
1lb 5 oz's with sewn in entry and guy-lines (no Annex)
1lb 10.5 oz's with Annex, guy-lines and sewn in vestibule
Dimensions:
68" entry at both ends
52" in height throughout (span of 8 feet)
Total length (with vestibule and Annex) APPX 13' 6'
The Megatarp was designed to be the lightest and largest option for a 2 person shelter, giving a pair of hunters their own entry and the option off adding a ultralght stove when the temps start to drop.
We were able to fit 2 people with five days of gear inside with no issue. Each vestibule is large enough for entry/exit through one side of the door and gear/pack to be stored under the other. You will also have a decent amount of space between each other for cooking/food prep.
I will post more photos later, but the placement of the guy-lines allows for a much taller vertical wall (more usable space) and the ability to sit upright, even when against the edge of the shelter.
These photos were taken during the prototype stages and the shelter wasn't perfect just yet....but it gives you an idea of the total size of the Megatarp. I will take several photos and video this weekend (going on backpacking/scouting trip) and will have them posted up Sunday when I return.
This photo gives a great illustration of the usable space the Megatarp allows.
