• Description

  We developed our ANTARCTICA DOME expedition tent together with polar explorer Arved Fuchs, specifically for use in extreme winter conditions. The dome design remains completely stable even in a snowstorm and the tent will comfortably accommodate three people plus kit.
  
  The flysheet is made of high-tenacity silicone coated RIPSTOP nylon, a waterproof and extremely tear resistant fabric. The tent is built to withstand snow loading and heavy, persistent rain. The D-shaped entrance is raised up from the ground to keep out snow. This design also increases the wind stability and allows you to get in and out more easily. The ANTARCTIC DOME is equipped with all-round snow and storm flaps.
  
  All of the air vents are equipped with mosquito mesh screens. An additional pole section allows you to rig out the vestibule, which provides plenty of space to stow your equipment.
