An Ultralight, fully free standing Dome tent, the Unna is highly versatile. Rather than a vestibule, the Unna has a spacious interior that easily accommodates the occupant and gear – or, in a pinch, the occupant and another person. And by disconnecting a corner of the inner tent, one can create both a virtual vestibule and keep the inner tent dry while entering or exiting in rainy conditions.

The Unna is ideal for journeys in any season where low weight is a high priority, and where the terrain makes for tricky pitching conditions. Since its outer tent is made with our ultralight Kerlon 1200 – whose 12 kilo tear strength is still far stronger than most "expedition" tent fabrics – the Unna is a fine choice for long or short trips above tree line in all but the worst conditions, and for below tree line use any time. Its Dome design handles snow loading quite well, making it suitable for short term base camp use, while its roominess and light weight lend themselves very well to mobile journeys, where you set up and take down your tent each day.
