ALPS Mountaineering Tasmanian 2 Floor Saver

rated 4.0 of 5 stars
photo: ALPS Mountaineering Tasmanian 2 Floor Saver footprint

The brown footprint (floor saver) is ripstop nylon. Has six reinforced grommets for the tent poles to slip into. Six male 3/4 inch buckles snap into the tent fly buckles. Works in snow and ice. Seam seal it when you first get it — to be sure it doesn't leak. The one that I bought did not come with taped seams. Washable.

Does not extend under the Tasmanian 2 vestibules. There is a 3-person size. This one won't fit the 3-person Tasmanian 3 tent. Can be used for other things that need a ripstop waterproof fly with grommets and buckles.

Pros

  • Strong, lightweight, waterproof
  • Washable
  • Works well in snow and ice
  • Inexpensive — more expensive than a tarp

Cons

  • Does not extend under the Tasmanian 2 vestibules
  • Extends an inch beyond the tent base, good for winter.
  • Did not come with taped seams

This is the 2-person size for the Tasmanian 2.

There is a 3-person size of this footprint for the Tasmanian 3.

Required item — Tasmanian tent floors are not Ripstop.

Much better than a tarp:

  • Lighter and stronger than the cheap blue or green tarps sold at hardware and home stores 
  • Less trouble than making your own TYVEK ground sheet
  • Fits tent outline
  • Reinforced grommets and buckles
