....from the manufacturer plus a little bit of my own commentary.
Cabela's XTP Xtreme Teepee
- Fast setup single-pole, single-wall, octagon design
- Fully functioning top *vent/skylight [in my picture my skylight is open]
- Lightweight, rugged polyester and nylon oxford
- Fully seam-taped
We built our soon-to-be legendary X-Teepee based on comfort, compactness and the classic design that was made famous by native Americans. The lightweight, yet rugged polyester 250-denier oxford, Polyurethane- and UV-treated fabric will keep rain and water outside where it belongs as well as hold up against the sun's damaging rays. A strong 210-denier Polyurethane-treated nylon oxford barrier keeps the floor and lower walls protected against any moisture on the ground.
Strategically placed No-See-Um mesh in the bottom vents lets air flow through on hot days and wet weather. All seams are fully seam-taped for reinforced strength and protection from the elements. Best of all, the X-Teepee sports a single-pole design with a D-ring on top so you've only got one pole to deal with, or hang it for even lighter and faster options.
*The E-Z adjust guide line inside pulls open the vent in the top for ventilation or watching the night sky. The centre pole is made of galvanized steel to meet the demands of your outdoor adventure. The main entrance sports a durable YKK® zipper. . Steel ground stakes and durable guide ropes. Includes zippered storage bag. Imported.
Centre pole dimensions: 1-1/4" diameter, 121"H. [10 feet high]
Tent dimensions: 173"L x 187"W x 122"H. [14 feet x 15 feet]
Color: Warm Gray/Burgundy.
NOTE -
I painted the decorations
I've had eight people sleeping on the ground
Four using cots
I had no problem with condensation - there are vents at the bottom, one at the top of the door and the *cap at the top can be raised to let out heat
Did well in rain and wind
Not sure of the weight - I'm guessing 50 pounds - the steal pole and stakes add most to the weight
I've use the tent in a variety of situations
I have one of these and this one too.
