Cosmetic Blemish

Product will have instances of extra Dyneema tape lines. Fully taped. No performance or weight difference and full warranty applies. Dyneema is inherently irregular — the fiber weave is wiggly and it only becomes a potential structural problem when the distance between adjacent fibers approaches 1/8in. All the Dyneema blemish tents have one or more extra tape lines to account for these fiber gaps. The tape actually makes the fabric stronger than it would otherwise be and the “look” is really not that different given the presence of all the taping already present.

New for 2020, the ProTrail Li is our simplest, lightest, and least expensive Dyneema® shelter. It is ideal for trekking pole users who want the ultimate lightweight and protection. Elegant and sturdy, the ProTrail Li will fit the confines of any pack and gives you the freedom and security you want for a wide range of conditions.

FAQs

Is the ProTrail Li fully waterproof?
Yes, it is fully seam-taped and fully waterproof. Dyneema® has a hydrostatic pressure rating of over 8,000 mm.

Which Dyneema fabric weights do you use?
The fly weight is 0.51 oz / yd 2
The floor weight is 1 oz / yd 2

Do I need trekking poles for general use?
Trekking poles are preferred but an 5.1 oz / 144 g pole set is available.

Can I use this for winter?
The structure will withstand light to moderate snow loading but is not intended for true winter.

Can I stuff the ProTrail Li to make it smaller?
We highly recommend rolling or folding, not stuffing, to extend the fabric lifespan. With careful rolling, the packed width can be made to fit horizontally into almost any pack.

Does the ProTrail Li accommodate tall people (over 6 ft 3 in / 190.5 cm)?
Lying down is no problem. The sloped design of the shelter makes sitting up harder. Boost your trekking pole to increase peak headroom.

What does my purchase include?
The ProTrail Li body, a stuff sack, aluminum stakes + stake bag and the necessary guyline cording. The ProTrail Li is designed for trekking poles to provide structure to the shelter. There are optional poles for non-trekking pole users that are available for purchase in the webstore.

Do I need a footprint?
Use of a groundsheet depends on the conditions you expect to encounter and your style of camping. The 1-oz Dyneema flooring is tough and does not usually require a separate groundsheet as long as the ground is clear of sharp objects. However, Dyneema, like all non-stretch fabrics, is subject to puncture under extreme pressure from sharp rocks or sticks. We sell optional Tyvek groundsheets which are very tough and great for sleeping out or taking a break, but generally heavier than you need for floor protection in most conditions. A groundsheet is recommended for use on very rocky ground and desert conditions.
