The Alps Mountaineering Taurus 2 Person Tent is a capable, lightweight backpacking and car-camping shelter built around a straightforward freestanding design. Two fiberglass poles and a simple clip system get you from stuff sack to ready in minutes—no staking required to achieve a stable setup, though guy lines and included stakes help you tension the fly and vestibules in variable weather. Weighing just 7 pounds and packing down to 6 by 20 inches, the Taurus strikes a practical balance between portability and livable interior space, making it a solid choice for hunters basecamp duty, backcountry trips, or weekend camping where you want fast setup without sacrificing weather security.
The tent's two-door layout and dual vestibules give you genuine flexibility: separate entry points mean less gear tracking through the living space, and each vestibule—32 inches deep—handles boots, packs, and muddy field kit before they reach your sleeping area. The floor and fly are factory-sealed at the seams and feature robust polyester taffeta construction with 1500mm and 2000mm coatings respectively, engineered to shed rain and resist UV degradation over seasons of use. Large #8 zippers on both doors glide smoothly, and mesh-panel windows in each door let you monitor conditions and enjoy natural light without sacrificing privacy or rain protection.
Ventilation is built in through mesh storage pockets and pop-up vents—often the difference between a clammy tent and a dry, comfortable one on cool nights. The gear loft lets you suspend small items overhead, keeping clutter off the floor and improving airflow. Buckle-down fly adjustments give you the leverage to dial in tautness on blustery evenings, and the included aluminum stakes and guy ropes mean you're ready to pitch anywhere without hunting for hardware.
| Base Dimensions | 5' × 7'6" |
| Interior Height (Center) | 46" |
| Vestibule Depth (Each) | 32" |
| Tent Floor Area | 37 sq ft |
| Vestibule Area (Total) | 20 sq ft |
| Total Weight | 7 lbs |
| Packed Dimensions | 6" × 20" |
| Pole Material & Diameter | Fiberglass, 8.5 mm |
| Fly Material | 75D 185T polyester, 1500mm coating |
| Floor Material | 75D 185T poly taffeta, 2000mm coating |
| Doors | 2 with zippered mesh windows |
| Seams | Factory-sealed fly and floor |
The tent comes complete with two fiberglass poles, aluminum stakes, and guy ropes—everything you need to set up and secure it. You don't need to purchase additional hardware or stakes.
Each of the two vestibules is 32 inches deep, providing 20 square feet of covered gear area total. That's enough for packs, boots, and field kit on both sides of the tent. Inside, mesh storage pockets and a gear loft keep smaller items organized and off the sleeping area.
The freestanding two-pole frame clips together and requires no staking to stand stable. Most users report quick assembly once they're familiar with the design; it's meant to be a grab-and-pitch option for hunters and backcountry campers who value speed.
Yes. The fly and floor seams are factory-sealed, and the fabrics are treated with 1500mm and 2000mm water coatings to shed rain. Mesh panels, pop-up vents, and dual-door ventilation help manage condensation on cool nights. Buckle-down fly tension lets you adjust for wind and heavy precipitation.
