Coleman Exponent Helios X2 Tent

Overview: Coleman Exponent Helios X2 Tent

Co-designed by veteran mountain guide Mike Haugen and tested on Mount Everest, the Coleman Exponent Helios X2 is a four-season tent worthy of the most grueling conditions. Developed to withstand high-altitude environments, the Helios X2 is a two-person modified dome tent. It has a footprint of 87"x52", with two large D-shaped doors and two vestibules that are 8 square feet each. Center height is 41". The Helios tent features four Yunan Atlas Scandium poles; used in high-performance sporting goods as well as military and space applications, the scandium alloy is well-suited to tent poles that must stand up to demanding conditions. A shock-corded floating connector, tapered on each end, joins identical poles, eliminating the need for a fixed insert in either pole. This innovative design allows the poles to flex in an even arc with better distribution of stress, making them stronger and less prone to failure. Structural features include a combination of pole sleeves and quick-clips for quicker setup without compromising strength. Extensive pole coverage with multiple guy-out points provides “bomb shelter" strength to handle snow loads and high-altitude winds. The 70-denier nylon fly sports silicone and polyurethane coatings to increase resistance to wind and weather. Inside pockets provide a handy place to store gear. Pack weight: 7 pounds 10 ounces. ...readmore reviews...

Product Specifications: Coleman Exponent Helios X2 Tent

The prototype of this 4-season tent was designed by professional mountaineers and tested on some of the highest way stations of Mt. Everest. The Helios X2 tent is, as a result, engineered specifically to withstand the combative conditions that exist at high altitudes. The Helios X2 tent features a more robust pole structure built to hold heavier snow loads, a waterproof silicone coating that won't crack in freezing temperatures, and all of the interior mesh can be zipped close to help heat retention. All of this, plus it has an easy pole/clip structure to make setup quick and easy.
