Description

Built for those who travel light but demand full protection, the Traverseon TrailPod Bivy Tent — 1 kg Ultralight Backpacking Shelter turns minimalist shelter into serious gear. Its single-person, twin-end pull design uses tensioned guy lines to create a stable, low-profile structure that resists wind and sheds rain. Crafted from 210T ripstop polyester (PU3000) with a PU4000 Oxford floor, it seals out moisture while keeping pack weight near 1 kg. Whether you’re bivouacking on alpine ridges, through-hiking with every gram counted, or setting a fast overnight base, TrailPod is the kind of reliability you can sleep in.

FAQs

Is it freestanding?

It’s a bivy-style shelter optimized for sleeping/resting; partial prop possible but not full sit-up height.

How does it handle rain?

PU3000 fly + PU4000 bathtub floor and sealed construction keep you dry in sustained rain.

Will it ventilate in humid weather?

Yes. Dual mesh doors create cross-ventilation to reduce condensation while blocking insects.
