The Sil Dome is a minimalist tarp shelter that utilizes a single 12 ft shock corded Easton .340 7075 pole to provide its parabolic shape and allow the catenary cut 1.1 oz Silicone impregnated nylon to be tightly set up in a variety of configurations, from elevated dome cook shelter to ground level two-person sleep shelter or rolled back into an open-fronted awning wind shelter.
