- Description

While somewhat heavier than a bivy bag, the Akto offers significantly more space, and it's vestibule easily accommodates all your gear. Yet it still stuffs down to a package that easily fits into a pack's side pocket. At the same time, its single-pole, tunnel design sheds wind, snow and rain with nary a problem. Pitching the Akto is simplicity itself. Insert the pole into the pole sleeve, place the end into the pole tensioner, then peg the corners and the guy lines on each end, and, voila: instant shelter! Fibreglass rods in the corners of the outer tent provide extra height, eliminating the claustrophobia that many solo tents engender. In windier conditions, the side guy lines ensure stability.

Quality Price Value so heres the low down, wish it were cheaper but when al hell is breaking loose cost is not what you're concernd about. in the akto you have a bombproff exoskelital tent that's lightweight and superbly crafted from the finest materals , this thing pitches in 6 mins. it will keep you dry safe and warm. when the big storm rolls in at 3 am you know that everything is gonna be just fine. weather is no longer a factor in the decision to go backpacking or not. like the green color 2 it hides nicely.
