The g2 mtn is our definitive mountain trekking tent – a three-pole geodesic tent with a large porch area (supported by a fourth pole) made from the strongest lightweight fabrics available. It is lighter and easier to pitch than a comparable-sized four-pole mountain tent, with a porch that allows cooking during bad weather. Although a mountain trekking tent as opposed to a true mountaineering tent, it might nevertheless be considered our most specialist model; actually, it is probably the most versatile. It will never compete with our extremely light ultra tents for low weight, but it will outlast them and offer a great balance of space and toughness in a single package at a reasonable weight.
