Solo Backpacking Shelter

The ALPS Mountaineering Lynx 1 is a freestanding, single-person tent built for lightweight backcountry travel. Its two-pole aluminum frame and clip attachment system allow rapid, hassle-free pitching at camp. The polyester fly and floor carry factory-sealed seams and waterproof coatings to keep the occupant dry in wet conditions.

Setup and Packing Checks

Verify that your pack can accommodate the 17-inch packed length and 5-inch diameter. Ensure the 8.5 mm aluminum poles and stake set are included for the freestanding pitch. Confirm the 7-foot-6-inch by 2-foot-8-inch footprint fits your intended campsite and that the single-door layout suits your entry preference.

Weather Protection and Ventilation

The 75D 185T polyester fly with 1500 mm coating and 2000 mm floor coating block rain and wind effectively. Half-mesh walls promote airflow to reduce condensation during warm nights. The design balances durable weather resistance with breathability for comfortable solo use across variable conditions.

Questions about this item

What is included with the tent and what must I buy separately?

The package provides the tent body, rainfly, aluminum pole set, stakes, guy lines and a stuff sack. A footprint or ground cloth is not included and must be purchased separately if desired.

How do the minimum and total weights of the Lynx 1 differ?

Minimum weight is 3 lbs. 5 oz. for the tent body, rainfly and poles only. Total weight is 4 lbs. 1 oz. when stakes, guy lines and stuff sack are added.

What does the 1500 mm coating on the rainfly mean in practice?

The 1500 mm hydrostatic-head rating on the 75D 185T polyester fly indicates it will resist moderate to heavy rain when the factory-sealed seams are intact.
