Hyperlite UltaMid 2 Review Andes to Caucasus Bikepacking Gear / Camping Gear The Hyperlite Mountain Gear Ultamid 2 is a minimal, pyramidstyle shelter, constructed in the US from top grade cuben fiber and rated for four season mountain use But given its eyebrowraisingly high price tag, is it really worth the investment? Review UltaMid 2 (Hyperlite Mountain Gear) by Chelsey Magness Look no further thruhikers and minimalist adventurers, the Ultamid tent is the smallest, lightest, and most durable we've seen on The biggest change was a whole new shelter setup Before, I had a Hilleberg Enan, a great tent that I was mostly pleased with But I decided to try Dyneema Composite fabric (former Cuben Fiber) and bought an Hyperlite Mountain Gear Ultamid 2, a polycro groundsheet from Gossamer Gear and a Borah Gear Bivy
Hyperlite mountain gear ultamid 2 review
Hyperlite mountain gear ultamid 2 review- The Hyperlite Mountain Gear UltaMid 2 is the best performing, most versatile shelter I've ever used There is little doubt in mind that it will continue to be my top choice for shelter any time I'm thinking of spending the night outside It is a discontinued 10 version of the new 11 poles from their Performance Mountain Trek line The SpeedLock doesn't seem to be a popular feature for a lot of people but I personally am inept when it comes to using the internal twisting kind
Reviews In the category of floorless tents, the Ultamid 4 is the best product I've owned (I've owned four other pyramid styled tents) and used several others Because of the Cubenfiber the Ultamid is also the lightest and the strongest of the lot (mine weighs 225 ounces with the staking cords but not the stakes) Because of its ultralight focus, the Hyperlite Mountain Gear Dirigo 2 is very limited on storage space Despite having two doors and two vestibules—a welcome and convenient addition to any lightweight shelter—space for gear is extremely lackingWhile the remarkable 117 lbs weight of the UltaMid 2 will be a welcome reduction to any kit's overall mass, put any concerns to rest that it translates to a sacrifice in durability The 100% waterproof Dyneema ® Composite Fabrics used to build this elegant structure will outlast gardenvariety silnylon materials many times over
My HMG Ultamid 2 is constructed with DCF8 Dyneema® Composite Fabrics (formerly Cuben Fiber) and I use it with a Half Insert made with a DCF11 floor My flysheet weighs 528 grams while the half insert comes in at 422 grams which gives a total weight of 950 gramsThe weight includes perimeter guy lines only and does not include tent stakes, pole straps, additional The only thing better than getting to spend four days exploring remote and rarely visited parts of Wyoming's Wind River Range was doing it with a Hyperlite Mountain Gear UltaMid 2 The ultralight Cuben fiber shelter proved itself reliable, easy to set up and plenty roomy We comfortably fit three people in the twope Hyperlite Mountain Gear Ultamid 2 – Review Craig Randall Some of our readers won't know John, that when your not guiding clients in on Trophy Bucks you also do a good amount of backcountry deer hunting When you do this, you generally run with a hyperlight setup which consists single walled tent
Summary The Hyperlite Mountain Gear UltaMid 2 is an extremely lightweight, minimalist tent that's made of superdurable Cuben fiber which offers excellent waterproof, UVresistant, and chemicalresistant performance When folded up, the extremely packable tent is about the size of a large water bottle The Hyperlite Mountain Gear Dirigo 2 Tent may excel (or do very well) in more areas than any tent But above all it is a rare combination of light, strong, and durable The Dirigo 2 has twodoors, twovestibules and above average floor area and peak height Of the floorless pyramid shelters (or midshelters), it's not surprising that the BD Beta Light, and Hyperlight Mountain Gear UltaMid 2 and the Durston XMid 1P score well due to their considerable footprints that provide loads of space for gear, cooking, and hanging out The floorless design offers excellent airflow, preventing condensation buildup
