Mountain Hardwear Nimbus Tent

With 28.1 square feet of floor area, it is a compact two-person shelter. While it fits two standard sleeping pads, it is best suited for partners who don't mind close quarters or solo hikers who want extra gear storage inside.

The double-wall design is excellent for moisture management. The waterproof 20D sil-nylon rainfly keeps rain out, while the mesh canopy allows condensation to escape, significantly reducing the dampness often found in single-wall tents.

No, this tent uses a dedicated DAC Featherlight NFL pole system. Because it is freestanding, you can set it up on rocky ground or wooden platforms where staking out isn't an option.

The total weight is 2.29 lbs. This includes the tent body, rainfly, and the pole set, making it a highly competitive choice for long-distance backpacking where every ounce counts.

The pre-bent poles create steeper sidewalls, which significantly increases the usable headroom and shoulder space inside. This prevents the tent walls from sloping inward onto your face while you are lying down.

The floor is constructed from 15D nylon ripstop, which is standard for ultralight gear. While it is waterproof, we recommend using a footprint or ground sheet to protect the material from abrasion on sharp rocks or sticks.
