Pack it, deploy it, ride out the weather in the Group Shelter 2 Person
What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:
"I carried this on a fast and light overnight where the forecast looked questionable, and when the wind picked up we had shelter up in under a minute. It packed down small enough that I barely noticed the extra weight for the peace of mind it gave me."
The Group Shelter 2 Person from Rab exists for the moment a forecast turns worse than expected and a couple of people need cover fast, whether that's an emergency pull off on an exposed ridge or a planned break during a rough stretch of weather. Lightweight, windproof polyester wraps around its occupants in seconds, held up by the people inside rather than a pole system that could slow things down.
A freestanding design keeps setup simple even in a hurry, and 37 inches of interior height leaves enough room to sit upright while waiting out the worst of it. Built to back up ultralight backpacking trips where a full tent isn't practical, this shelter adds a real safety margin without adding real weight to the pack.
