Based on Ed Viesturs' specifications for a compact, light, strong, expedition tent, the EV 3™ is designed for the rigors of high altitude mountaineering. The EV 3 shelters three persons, has a trim design to fit on ledges, and its clip set-up aids high-wind pitches. VX02 fabric - a lightweight, strong, non-stretch laminate - stabilizes and strengthens when pitched, and Atlas Scandium XL poles add sturdiness while shaving weight. Interior zip and built in ventilation help frost management.
