The NEMO Hornet OSMO 3P scales up the ultralight Hornet design for three occupants, or works as a roomy option for two who want extra comfort. At a 1.28 kg trail weight and 1.49 kg full packed weight, it's on the lighter end for double-wall 3-person tents, and a 3.7 m² floor with two vestibules totaling 1.6 m² leaves plenty of room for sleeping and gear storage.
It's a semi-freestanding dome with two doors, built from OSMO ripstop fabric combining recycled polyester and nylon; a 1200 mm hydrostatic head on the fly and 1500 mm on the floor are standard for this category — adequate for typical conditions but not built for sustained heavy rain or wind. The semi-freestanding structure also means the corners must be staked carefully to reach full shape, demanding more attention on exposed ridgelines or in strong wind than a fully freestanding design.
The Hornet OSMO 3P suits groups of three on multi-day trips, or a pair who values the extra room over a standard 2-person tent, in exchange for a modest weight increase.
