Description
The Squall Classic is a three-season tent made by Gossamer Gear. It has an average rating of 5 stars (out of 5), based on 1 user review.
Manufacturer's Description:
Gossamer Gear is proud to announce this co-production with Henry Shires and Tarptent. The Squall Classic is Henry's original Squall design. It was tweaked for weight reduction and a bathtub floor was also added. The final result is this amazing two person shelter that weighs about a pound and a half including stakes (4), lines, rear pole, and stuff sack!
The canopy of the Classic is made using our time tested spinnaker sail cloth. It is light, waterproof and has the added advantage over other fabrics of NOT stretching or sagging when wet or damp - minimizing or eliminating the need to get out and re-tension the lines. This iteration of the Squall comes with a rear hoop pole and utilizes a trekking pole in the front or an optional front aluminum tarp pole. The Classic is optimized for ventilation with mesh front, rear, and side panels and is accessed by a zipper in the front mesh. Use for three-season full floor and bug protection for two, or a palace for one on long distance hikes, or if looking for super easy setup.
MSRP: $295

The Squall is terribly easy to set up and seriously takes just a couple of minutes for one person. I use one of my trekking poles as the front pole."
