Exped Venus 2 Extreme Tent

Description

The Exped Venus II Extreme is an absolute staff favourite and is strong enough to protect you alpine snow camping as well as ventilated enough for general bush camping year round. The Venus II gives ample space for 2 without compromising weight. Two entrances with cross ventilation and two fly vents make this Exped tent the one tent for all conditions, 3 and 4 season.

This Exped tent is an exo-skeleton tent, meaning the poles run on the outside of the fly. This is a HUGE advantage for extreme environments and gives an easy and strong setup with premounted canopy – there is no exposing the inner in bad weather when setting up or packing down, it sets up as one piece. The continuous and color coded pole sleeves on fly and easy adjust tension pole pockets add to features which come in handy when setting up at night, the snow, or in high winds. 

 

The Venus II Extreme has a siliconised Nylon fly, not a polyester one like most tents. Siliconised Nylon does stretch a bit which makes it stronger in high winds as it has give. It is also extremely light for its strength. 

 

Seriously, if you have to own one tent to do it all, this thing will take you from Aussie bush to the worlds high alpine mountains.
