ALPS Mountaineering Taurus 6 Tent: 6-Person 3-Season Glacier Gray/Molten Lava, One Size

What Our Gearhead(R) Experts Are Saying:"I've set up the Taurus 6 with my kids more times than I can count, and the two-pole clip system is genuinely one of the easiest frames I've ever worked with. The dual doors are a huge deal when you've got six people - nobody's climbing over each other to get in or out. The vestibules are roomy enough to pile gear outside and keep the interior clean, which matters a lot when you're camping with a full family."Base camp looks different for everyone. For some of us, it's a trailhead parking lot with a cooler full of food and six people who haven't seen each other since last summer. The ALPS Mountaineering Taurus 6 Tent is built for exactly that kind of trip - the kind where the goal is to be outside together, not to fight with your shelter. The tub-style floor and factory-sealed fly seams handle whatever the forecast throws at us, and the 6-foot center height means we can actually stand up and get dressed in the morning without contorting. Two doors eliminate the traffic problem entirely, and the pair of large vestibules gives us somewhere to pile boots, bags, and anything we don't want inside. Setup runs on two fiberglass poles and a ring-and-pin frame, which means we're inside and comfortable before the sun drops behind the ridgeline.
