## Description

The Explorer 6 by Sherper's is the perfect 6-person tent for those looking for durability and features. It comes with all of the great features and accessories listed above along with superior ventilation with the half mesh walls, weatherproof fly buckles, mesh storage pockets, gear loft, 7075 aluminum stakes, guy ropes, and compact compression sack. The polyester walls and fly will stand up to the elements with the 3000mm coating on the fly. The poly oxford floor (also with a 3000mm coating) adds superior durability at almost twice the weight of a normal nylon floor and with the total packed weight of the tent at only 14lbs. Our tent also has a limited lifetime warranty so you can rest assured that your tent is covered against any material or workmanship defects.

Review: The only way to get 6ppl Outfitter with AL Poles - If you look at the Alps website you will see they offer a series of "outfitter" tents based on their Taurus and Mermac models e.g. same basic design but with larger (=more durable) zippers and oxford nylon (=tougher) floors. The Taurus and Mermac designs are super easy to put up and use only 2 poles - my 9 & 11yr olds can easily set up my 4pps Taurus AL by themselves and our scout troop uses the Mermacs for the same reason. The main difference is that Alp's Taurus tent series have a more complete rain fly that zips down in front and back to create awnings and the Taurus comes with ALUMINUM poles which are more durable, lighter and don't give splinters like fiberglass. The Mermac has no awnings and comes with fiberglass poles - we live in Minnesota and fiberglass can get brittle cold. Aluminum can bend if abused - fiberglass breaks. SO.... why is this Sherpers version the best? Because if you want a 6 person, 10'x10' footprint outfitter duty version WITH factory aluminum poles THIS SHERPERS VERSION is your only option. Alps sells a Taurus Outfitter sized for 5 people with an 8x10 footprint and aluminum poles for $389MSRP(as of this writing!!!) but they don't offer a 6 person version. Alps also sells a 6 person Mermac Outfitter but it comes with the less protective rainfly and fiberglass poles. All that being said - I used this tent twice at 2 separate scout camps and the tent performed flawlessly. Two adults on cots had PLENTY of room and the awnings and doors on each side allowed each person a place to store shoes and other "outside" gear outside the tent. A couple of tips - we used a cheap 5mil 10x10 blue tarp for a footprint - costs $12 on desertcart and worked just fine. No need to buy an expensive fitted footprint. We used moving blankets on the floor inside to create "carpeted" interior that is also easy to clean. Bring a 2x3 piece of astro-turf as a door mat. This is for car camping of course - not for use as a mountain trek with your titanium spork!!! Conclusion - great price for an awesome tent design with heavy duty upgrades and aluminum poles. Get one while they last!!! [I AM NOT GETTING PAID ANYTHING - I GENUINELY LOVE THIS TENT AND IT IS EVERYTHING I WANTED AFTER DOING THE RESEARCH]
Review: Great tent, comes with its own nature (spiders from where every its made) - Great for nature. Comes with five of its own Brown Recluse spiders (LIVE). Sorry but I was too busy killing them to take pictures. Missing a loop sewed into top of tent so gear loft is useless. Size is perfect, main reason I bought it. Love the fact that the poles CLIP to the tent - no pockets to slide poles thru. Pockets are a major pain when setting up in rain. Like the vestibules on both ends. Want to see how it performs in the rain. Even with guylines the tarp sags enough if wet it hits the tent. BTW guylines should be a bright color. Can’t be seen at night. Major tripping hazard. Also as you trip over them the tent can be easily torn. This is typical of most tent. I automatically replace them with paracord with reflector windings. We will see. Overall great tent, snap to set-up, take down, plenty of room. Bring bug spray for first set-up.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Perfect for family of 6 backpackers!
*by N***E on March 29, 2023*

As a family of 6, with of those being under the age of 12 and unable to carry much of their own weight/supplies, it was a struggle to find a large enough tent that was also lightweight enough for long backpacking trips. We just purchased this and used it for the first time. The set up was super easy and quick for us 2 adults and we believe 2 of our older kids can probably do it next trip after watching us this first time. The tent itself was surprisingly roomy and comfortably fit all 6 of us and some of our gear without difficulty. During our first night in the tent, we experienced an unexpected wind storm and the tent withstood 35mph winds for almost 24 hours straight without problem once we tightened everything down once. We were pleasantly surprised with how the tent stood up during the storm. I cannot say enough about this tent and we look forward to using it again soon!
