help Tarptent Notch FAQ
Does the Tarptent Notch require trekking poles?
The Notch is designed around two trekking poles, which replace conventional tent poles and help keep packed weight low. Tarptent also offers optional support poles for hikers who do not carry trekking poles.
Is the Tarptent Notch a single-wall or double-wall tent?
The Notch uses a fly plus a separate mesh or solid inner, making it a modular double-wall shelter. The inner can help separate the sleeper from condensation forming beneath the fly.
How many people fit in the Tarptent Notch?
It is a one-person shelter with two vestibules and two side doors. The narrow architecture is efficient for a solo hiker, but it is not intended to accommodate a second adult.
How does the Notch differ from the Tarptent Notch Li?
The standard Notch uses conventional lightweight fabrics, while the Notch Li uses Dyneema composite fabric to reduce weight. The Li version costs substantially more and packs differently because Dyneema is generally folded or rolled rather than tightly stuffed.
