Durable and lightweight at just 250g, this one-person shelter packs down small, offering quick-setup refuge to the intrepid mountain traveller.
Rab says:
Weighing in at just 250g and packing down to 22cm x 14cm, it’s a no-brainer to pack the SilTarp 1 on every adventure. For fast and light mountain movers, it offers additional shelter on an overnight bivi, or can be used at basecamp to provide a dry place to sit.
The 1.5m x 2.4m rectangular tarp is made from tough, siliconised 30D Cordura with a PU coating. Ultralight and waterproof it’s incredibly strong and made from a single sheet of fabric without seams. The 16 guy points are reinforced for strength and offer a variety of different setup options with a central lifter point.
Our Verdict
Light, durable, and versatile, Rabs line of siltarps are an institution in the outdoors world, are lighter and more durable than before. Â With 16 reinforced attachment points, and a center lifter point, for ridgeline support or for use with a trekking pole to add stability, the number of configurations you can assemble this tarp is almost limitless. Â Â Brilliant for solo trips, but its so small and light this could be stashed in any pack and could be used as an emergency shelter, or used in conjuncture with a tent to give a huge living area.
