This tent is built by professionals for those who are going to camp in the toughest weather conditions. The tent is designed for 2 people (3 when laying with a jack), is made of durable nylon and is designed for use at any time of the year. A hemisphere with a low profile, a special design of the frame made of aluminium arches, the presence of a wide skirt and numerous wind extensions allow this model not to give in even in strong winds of high mountains.
The winds are not terrible
The all-season tent of the Ukrainian manufacturer Terra Incognita stands out against the background of expedition analogues by the presence of an external frame, which speeds up assembly and allows, if necessary, to use only an external awning, for example, for organizing a camping warehouse or a mini-dining room.
Another feature of the model is a low profile design (height 105 cm) and a 4-arc aluminium frame with 7 points of pairwise intersection of racks. As a result, there will be no questions about wind resistance even in high mountains, which, by the way, is hinted at by the very name of the tent — TopRock.
Rainfall is not a problem
The model has a traditional two-layer design. The polyester inner tent prevents condensation well. The outer nylon awning is coated with silicone, providing good protection against water (up to 6000 mm): even heavy rainfall or moderate prolonged rain will not lead to leakage.
The bottom of the Terra Incognita TopRock 2 is made from wear-resistant nylon. Its high water resistance (10000 mm) is complemented by a folding protective skirt, which acts as another barrier to rain, wind and dust.
Solution 2+1
The tent is considered a comfortable double solution. At the same time, a rather spacious recreation area (220x165 cm) allows even three tourists to be accommodated (when stacked with a jack). Each of the two entrances is duplicated with a mosquito net and provides its own vestibule of medium size (length 75 cm): they will definitely fit all the equipment of 2-3 people.
As fittings, products of well-known brands are used, including YKK zippers. For the convenience of users, inside there are both pockets and a hanging shelf for small items, as well as a loop for a lantern.
Due to the presence of a reinforced frame, the total weight of the model with pegs and a complete cover reaches 4.65 kg, which is a lot in terms of one person (more than 2.3 kg). But if the priority is reliability and wind resistance, then the Terra Incognita TopRock 2 is one of the best expedition tents for the money.
