KEY FEATURES
PITCHING
Despite the unsusual design, there’s nothing complicated here. Simply peg out the groundsheet and lift the pole into position.
LIVING/SLEEPING
Inside the Green Cone, there is one single living and sleeping area, big enough to accommodate four campers. There’s ventilation at ground level and at the apex and the outer flysheet is raised from the ground to allow airflow. With the inner tent attached, there’s a useful storage porch at the front, useful for backpacks and muddy boots. Alternatively, the inner can be removed, the pole and outer lowered and you can use it as a bivy for lightweight camping.
OUR VIEW
A flexible, easy and quick to pitch tipi that will appeal to anyone looking for something a little different from the usual mainstream tent offerings. It’s perfect for touring and weekends away, but it’s also great option for a group lightweight camping. With the inner removed it weighs just 2.9kg, so is easily carried in backpacks if split up between four campers.
