The Deschutes is a no-frills, ultralight tarp shelter that delivers full weather protection without the bulk. Weighing in at just 13 oz (370 g), this solo tarp is designed for minimalist backpackers, bikepackers, and fast movers who need dependable shelter without the weight penalty. Its pyramid-style, single-pole design offers impressive 360° protection from wind and rain, while the strategic venting and generous peak height (49") provide essential breathability and headroom. Ideal for 3-season backpacking, wet and humid conditions, and ultralight bikepacking, the Deschutes keeps you covered through rugged weather and lean miles.
Though pared down to the essentials—no floor, no pockets—this tarp doesn't compromise on function. The hexagonal shape creates a stable footprint in varied terrain, and when paired with the Serenity NetTent (sold separately), it forms a fully enclosed, double-wall shelter with bug protection and a bathtub floor. Whether you're thru-hiking or chasing mileage on two wheels, the Deschutes gives you the freedom to travel fast, light, and dry.
