This impressive polycotton tarp is the perfect companion for all basecamps. With an impressive size of 580x440 cm, it provides ample protection and versatility. Weighing 5 kg, it is heavier than regular tarps, thus making it more suitable for basecamp setups where weight is not a significant concern. However, this added weight provides extra stability and reliability in windy and unstable weather conditions, making it easier to create a solid and durable basecamp area.

NORTENT Helleren is sewn in a so-called catenary cut. We have chosen this cut to reduce movement and flapping of the flysheet when it is windy. A flapping of the flysheet is annoying and in addition it makes unnecessary stress on the fabric. This often occurs with a traditional, square shape of a tarp. With a Catenary cut, it is easier to get a straight canvas where you avoid a great deal of flapping, and of course, the set up looks very cool.
