Stoney Creek Armadillo 1-Man Tent | Lightweight Backcountry Shelter
Stoney Creek Armadillo 1-Man Tent | Lightweight Backcountry Shelter
Description
The Stoney Creek Armadillo 1-Man Tent is made for solo backcountry trips where a shelter has to earn its place in the pack. It keeps the footprint tight, cuts unnecessary bulk, and still gives you the technical details needed when the weather turns.
The double wall construction gives you a breathable inner with mosquito netting, while the fully seam sealed 30D 260T Sil/PU coated nylon fly provides 2000mm (78.7 inch) waterhead protection. Underneath, the 40D 260T PU coated nylon floor is rated to 5000mm (196.9 inch) waterhead and extends into the vestibule so your gear is not sitting straight on the ground.
Setup has been kept practical. The 8.5mm (0.33 inch) Korean alloy poles use a rotating centre hub, hypalon sock system, and clip-on fly attachment to make pitching more straightforward in rough conditions. The vestibule can open from the left or right, which helps when the wind shifts around camp.
Carry it stripped back at 1.36kg (3.0lb), use the full backcountry setup at 1.89kg (4.2lb), or pack the complete shelf kit at 2.09kg (4.6lb). For long solo trips where every gram matters, that flexibility is worth having before you leave the trailhead.
