You are bidding on a

SIERRA DESIGNS ULTRA LIGHT YEAR CD BACKPACKING TENT NEW.

MSRP: $359.00
PAID: $249.00
ASKING: $149.00 free shipping

This tent is one of the lightest, one-person, full-feature, double-wall tents that you can find - if you can find it at all. It was discontinued. I purchased three of them and this one is unopened, in the package in which it came.

The entire package is shown in the photo below and then below the photos are its description and specifications.

I have been using an Ultra Light Year CD as my tent of choice for about three years and I find the weight, size, function to be ideal for me. It is a one-person tent, perfect for anyone who travels alone or prefers to shelter alone while traveling with others. There is plenty of room for one person and gear and it has a vestibule, also. Not only can you batten down the hatches in nasty conditions, but you can stake open the door for views and fresh air - yes, bug netting door keeps out the pests. Plenty of headroom for sitting upright (at least for me with a 18.5 torso).

As with much of my gear, if I find something I really like I buy more than one. I have three of these and this one just sits in my gear closet unopened, unused -- so here it is available for auction.

THIS IS THE PACKAGE UP FOR AUCTION:

TENT DESCRIPTION:

 

DESCRIPTION
Using revolutionary new materials, Sierra Designs has built the lightest 1-person, 3-season tent around, without sacrificing strength or durability!. Easton UltraLite(TM) AC aluminum/carbon poles offer a higher strength-to-weight ratio and are 30% lighter than standard Easton poles.

Full-coverage, seam-taped, waterproof rainfly features an integral vestibule to provide gear storage out of the weather. Simple to set up, the 2-pole design with Swift Clips(TM) offers space to sit up , plus allows ventilation between tent and rainfly. Sewn-in floor stays taut to provide maximum usable space; heavy-duty polyurethane coating and factory-taped main floor seam keep out water.

Mesh panels around the tent allow good ventilation to prevent condensation. Optic white tent canopy offers increased light transmission for a brighter living space. Reflective guyout loops allow night visibility; reflective noiseless zipper pulls are easy to see and eliminate that annoying jingle when it's windy. Non-wicking stake loops help keep tent floor dry.
