The flexible shelter

Adaptable. Versatile. Strong.

From 1 to 6 people.
Pitch to suit the terrain and weather.
Superior materials for durability in difficult conditions.

Modular Shelter System – the single poled shelter that can do it all.

Shelter. Systemized.

Your trips are different – different places, different people, different times of year. Finally a shelter that can keep up with all those changes.
Create the optimal shelter. Adjust the size by adding elements, then optimise for ventilation, internal space, rain protection or wind stability when pitching.

A pyramid. With walls.

Standard pyramid shelters have limited space near the edges, yet also can’t seal well to the ground. The versatile sidewalls of the modular shelter system give four different pitching options.
Walls standing creates more space. Roll them up for ventilation. In bad weather, pitch with the walls on the ground – outside under snow or rocks for stability, inside in the rain.

Built to perform.
Again and again.

A wilderness shelter isn’t much use if you can’t rely on it. So we designed and specified the Modular Shelter System with durability in mind.
Incredibly tear-resistant 40D double silicone coated nylon. Hypalon to distribute stresss at the corner. YKK zips. All details to help you sleep easier.

System Highlights

Just some of the features that make the Modular Shelter System unique.

Three Modular Shelters. 5R, 6R, 7R. The different shapes are made by combining different numbers of Elements. In this case, all the shelters use the regular Elements, the Single Element and Double Element.
Adding a Double Element to a 5R shelter makes it into a 7R shelter. Sleeping capacity goes up from two people to six people.
When a modular shelter is pitched with the sidewalls standing, the sidewalls can be rolled up. Here the sidewall poles are left standing in position, to improve stability. If the weather changes, simply roll the sidewalls down and fasten.
With the sidewalls outside, snow, sand or rocks can be used to stabilize the shelter. For example, use in a rocky river valley where pegs cannot easily be placed. This technique makes the shelter incredibly wind resistant.
The Rain Ceiling™ can be quickly attached with ventilation on any side. Up to 3 weatherproof vents are possible. In good weather, ventilation can be improved by removing the Rain Ceiling entirely.
Each Element has a side vent. Protected from the weather and insects, the side vents ensure ventilation even if the sidewalls are laid flat and sealed with snow or rocks. They can be closed if needed in extreme weather.
