Gossamer Gear DCF Whisper
If you’re an ultralight hiker looking for a spacious, storm- and bug-proof shelter weighing only 280gm , then Glen’s go-to, the Whisper, is for you.
Features
Catenary-cut panels and 7 stakes provide great stability. Meticulously designed with 0.51-oz Bio Based DCF, the Whisper sets up with 2 trekking poles for sufficient headroom and toe box clearance. The generous mesh skirt keeps bugs at bay and offers ventilation, while the waterproof zipper and taped seams keep you dry. The vestibule supplies space to stow gear and is raised to maintain visual contact with your surroundings. And the floor-less design gives you the freedom to pack your ground cloth separately for those extra muddy days.
**Stakes and poles not included
- More spacious than you think
- Taped seams throughout
- Ridgeline sewn & taped for strength
- Vestibule for gear storage
- Full mesh skirt for bug protection
