NEED POLES FOR THIS TENT? FIND THEM HERE
If you're looking for full protection for a pound, The One™ is your ticket. Generous bathtub floor, full mesh enclosure with zippered entry, and zippered split beak provide plenty of room for the solo hiker with gear inside and outside. Multi-support design means you can use your adjustable trekking poles, fixed length trekking poles (120 - 130 cm) or available segmented tent poles to set up your One™. Six stakes (not included) and an easy setup means you'll be snug in your shelter in a minimum of time and effort. Our EZC2 guylines are highly visible day and night with new reflective tracers. Our time-tested spinnaker fabric keeps the rain at bay, while a protected rear double vent coupled with the beak clearance and perimeter mesh provide for ample ventilation. Then there's the nice extras: a clip to hang your mini flashlight and illuminate the shelter and vestibule, a mesh bag for your reading glasses and whatnot, and loops so that a drying line can be rigged.
The design goals of The One™ were to provide a full-protection, single wall shelter that a tall person could easily sit up in (without having to crowd into one end of the shelter), with room inside for some gear, well-ventilated with a good-sized vestibule, allowing flexible pole options for about a pound. Glen has been toying with various design solutions for this since 2003. In 2007, after a trip with longtime customer and talented gear tinkerer Rik Christensen, Rik showed Glen a shelter he had made, and the resultant exchange of ideas helped mold the final shape and feature set of The One™. To help mitigate the wind profile of a high shelter, the rear is canted to help shed breezes. There are additional tie out points along the rear edge and the tent can be secured to the rear pole to provide additional stability. The computer-designed catenary cut lines allow for a taut setup. Strategic 70d reinforcements spread the stresses while maintaining minimum weight.
We recommend seam sealing, as a minimum, the ridgeline and rear roof lines of The One™ with either Silnet or a painted-on homemade mixture of silicon sealant and mineral spirits. Since the floor of The One™ is the same lightweight spinnaker as the body of The One™, the Squall Classic and our tarps, we recommend always using a Polycryo groundcloth to protect it. The One™ ships with a 2-pack of the medium Polycryo included.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION:
All tents being sold now have the front vestibule bottom pullouts reinforced with extra stitching. Only tents sold in February and March needed the reinforcement.The One Vestibule Repair
Please be aware that before you set up your tent, you will need to push up the piece of fabric at the top of the vestibule near the front pole grommet pull-out so that it forms a "tube" for the front pole to extend into. This will protect the fabric from rubbing against the front pole tip. Check the User Manual for further instructions on how to do this.
In order to lighten our environmental footprint, we will no longer be shipping a printed user manual with those products that require one. You can view or download and print user manuals in Microsoft Word and PDF format at
User Manuals.
