It is a single skinned tent, believed to be designed for high altitude climbing, made of Egyptian cotton.
It has two ‘A’ frame poles which are held together by the guy ropes at each end, with a, what looks like a ridge made of rope. The door is a tunnel, again designed for snow conditions with vent tunnels above the door and one on the back wall of the tent. There are three guys down each side and one on the rear of the tent plus two main guys. All around the tent are flaps which rocks or snow can be placed to add stability. Inside at the front of the tent the ground sheet has popers on which will allow a section of the ground sheet to be folded back to so cooking can be done on the snow and not allow the ground sheet to be messed up while cooking is done.
