The g2 ultra is the big brother to the g1 ultra – a spacious two-person, three-pole semi-geodesic tent ideal for backpacking anywhere. In fact, it is roomy enough for three people who want to travel as light as possible, giving them a shared weight of less than 0.80 kg each. The highest-strength ultralight fabrics have been used throughout to ensure both durability and full protection from the elements all year round – this is a true four-season trekking tent. The porch area is generous, but those wanting more storage or cooking space can choose either the new g2 ultriX with a larger porch, or opt for the g2 ultra xt with the fully extended vestibule.
