UltaMid 1 | Hyperlite Mountain Gear Shop

Amongst the lightest and most basic forms of shelter available, tarps create a barrier between dwellers, weather, and critters. But there’s a caveat–an effective setup can take time, and the surroundings can add further complexity to what you have to work with–or without. Enter the UltaMid 1 . Cut and shaped with six strategically placed perimeter tie-outs and requiring just one trekking pole for structure, it pitches fast and reliably every time you use it. With many of the same easy-to-live-with exterior features found on its all-enclosed sibling, the Mid 1, the UltaMid 1 is incredibly light, takes up as much space as a water bottle when it’s rolled up, covers an area of 40 sq ft, and, because it’s built with 100% waterproof Dyneema Composite Fabrics, offers outstanding protection against rain. If you’re into the simple life, the UltaMid 1 is calling you home.
