Eureka TIMBERLINE® 2 PERSON TENT

The Eureka TIMBERLINE 2 PERSON TENT is the classic A-frame silhouette that has defined budget-friendly, freestanding backpacking tents for decades, built here with a 5-pole aluminum frame (12.7 mm poles) rather than the simpler ridge-pole systems of true vintage A-frames. At 2.98 kg packed (2.6 kg minimum, 1.49 kg per person), it is heavier than most modern 2-person backpacking tents, reflecting both its double-wall construction and the more basic 75D polyester fabric used throughout rather than lighter modern deniers. Waterproofing is modest by current standards: both the fly and floor carry an 800 mm hydrostatic rating, noticeably lower than the 1500 mm typical of newer designs in this catalog, and the seams require user-applied sealant rather than arriving factory-taped – a maintenance step worth doing before a wet-weather trip. There is no vestibule, so gear stays inside the 3.53 m² floor area (1.77 m² per person) or under the door awning. Eight steel stakes and included guy lines secure the pitch. This tent suits budget-conscious 3-season use in fair to moderate conditions rather than technical or wet-climate backpacking.
