The patented Notch is our lightest non-Dyneema double-wall shelter, ideal for trekking pole users who want extra protection from condensation with minimal weight. The Notch is versatile and perfect for a thru-hike or shoulder season adventures.

Includes:

Notch fly, with struts, cording, and apex guylines
Notch mesh or solid interior
Four Easton® Nano 6 in / 152 mm aluminum stakes
Matching stake bag
Matching tent bag

Features:

Made with 30D double ripstop 100% silicone coated nylon 66 rated to over 5,000mm hydrostatic head for excellent strength and durability or 20D Polyester nano ripstop which does not sag when wetted and retains less water than nylon also rated to over 5,000mm hydrostatic head

Premium materials and components: YKK zippers, USA made Easton® stakes, carbon fiber struts, Spectra® cording
Excellent wind performance due to low drag shape and small panel sizes
Steep walls shed snow and small panels minimize snow load potential
Integrated interior pockets and clips for gear organization and storage
Dual doors and vestibules allow for easy entry and exit as well as extra gear storage space
Trekking poles can be orientated tip-up or handle-up with optional adapters
Double wall design separates you from condensation
Fly and interior can both be set up independently
Pitches fly first to keep the interior dry when setting up or taking down in the rain
Large and adjustable high and low venting options help minimize condensation while providing storm protection when needed
Patented PitchLoc™ carbon fiber strut corners increase interior volume and stability, struts are easily removable
Easy and fast 4 stake pitch, can be pitched in under 1.5 minutes
Catenary cut curves for taught stable pitching
Protected entry/exit keeps the interior dry during rain
Fits wide sleeping pads up to 25 in / 63.5cm wide

Note: Interiors (mesh or solid) are interchangeable and clip in and out from underneath the fly. You may order either interior at a later date, or the “Both” option means that are ordering the fly and two interiors. The solid interior (which has two thirds solid, one third mesh walls and solid roof panels) blocks horizontally blowing wind, sand, snow, and rain. It makes the tent up to 8 degrees F warmer in calm winds.

FAQ's:

Do I need trekking poles for general use?
Trekking poles are preferred but a 4 oz / 113 g alternate pole set is also available for moderate winds. An 8 oz / 227 g pole set is available for strong winds and snow.

Does this Tarptent accommodate tall people (over 6 ft 3 in / 190.5 cm)?
Yes, we recommend the Notch for taller folks. The design of the shelter makes it impossible to run into end walls and there is ample sit-up room. We’ve heard of folks as tall as 6’6″ (198 cm) making the Notch their home.

Can I stuff the Notch to make it smaller?
Yes, the 4 carbon fiber struts are easily removed from the fly.

Are there any additional pullout points for extra staking?

The Notch has attachments for (and ships with) apex guylines to strengthen the ridgeline. It also has mid-hem loops for tie-outs.

Will the Notch fit a long/wide sleeping pad?

Yes, the Notch can fit a 76 in x 25 in / 193 cm x 64 cm sleeping pad. Scroll through the photos above to see it in action.

Can I use this for winter?

The structure will withstand light to moderate snow loading. Opt for the partial solid interior to increase warmth and deploy the apex guylines to strengthen the ridgeline.
