Updated for 2020, the Tarptent Notch Li includes two-way separating waterproof zippers on both vestibules, super tough spectra-core guylines, and a brand-new ultralight solid interior (with a solid fabric roof!). I initially set the poles to 115 as in the video above and also played with them at 110 which allowed the fly to pitch to the deck giving goo options for varied weather conditions. Thanks for doing the review, Tony! They also make a Dyneema Stratospire Li (2-person) and the Dyneema Tarptent Notch Li (1-person).

Tarptent Notch, first impressions. I bought a Tarptent Notch. Excited to hear your thoughts about the feasibility of this shelter for backcountry hunting! I've been leaning towards the Big Agnes Copper Spur UL1: it's spacious, side entry, and has a generous vestibule and … I've only currently pitched it in the garden. I have used it in all types of weather all year round. My StratSpire 1 sets up either inner only or fly only. I have been using a tarp but it needs replacing, and I have given thought to a tarp/bivy combo; I have enjoyed using a tarp the past few years, but I eventually found setting up it up every night to be a little tedious, and the head room isn't great when it is stormy. The packed size is also very compact. Tarptent Notch with parital solid innertent Updated for 2018, the Notch fly is now water pressure rated to 3,000 mm hydrostatic head. The Tarptent Notch is a one person tent and it is a 3+ seasons Silnylon shelter. Visit TarpTent.com. If the photos and printed information don't answer your questions, ask the folks who work at TarpTent. The Tarptent Notch Li vestibule isn’t big enough for a 95-pound labrador retriever, so keep that mind if you need this tent to accomodate your furry friend. I'm guessing it works the same. I owned a Fly Creek 3 and it was ok but only having one entrance sucked and the floors are paper thin. I'm torn on my choice of tent. The Fly Creek also wasn't a true free standing tent and actually required just as many stakes to setup as the Stratospire 2. Design The Aeon Li is a fully enclosed one person shelter with integrated fly and bathtub floor. The Fly Creek also wasn't a true free standing tent and actually required just as many stakes to setup as the Stratospire 2. The Notch only requires 4 stake and looks like a good compromise between the two, but the sleeping space is a little small based on my taping the outlines to the floor (I am 6'2", 190 pounds). The free standing nature of the copper spur is where it's at. Pitched at 110cm, flatter apex as the pitch locks are only just pulled taut.

It only takes me a couple of minutes to do so. I owned a Fly Creek 3 and it was ok but only having one entrance sucked and the floors are paper thin. I do know that you can buy either or both inner tents. I'm living in USA but I visit UK and intend to use the Notch in UK camping trip later this year, and ultimately may relocated back to UK. Verify. The fly only (with stakes included: you need those to set it up!) I am down to choosing between a Tarptent Stratospire 1, a Notch, or a ProTrail. The Notch packs down into a long sausage type package. The Tarptent Notch Li features a catenary ridgeline, dual trekking poles for support, two PitchLoc corners, only four required stake-out points, and of course, low-stretch DCF fly fabric. If you choose to set it up as a fly-only option, weight is cut down to 25oz (710g), including stakes and the optional tensioning strap, and Tyvek footprints (4.9oz/140g) cut to shape cost a reasonable $15. If I have my smaller HMG Windrider 2400 pack I'll just strap it on top. It also features zipperless doors and no moving parts for long term durability. I bought a Tarptent Notch. It requires a long but lightweight center pole to pitch, making it remarkably fast and easy to set up. The ProTrail looks good, if not quite as stormworthy, though I like …
