So maybe you're not an ultralighter. Maybe you'd rather have rock-solid gear that doesn't have to be babied. For people whose top priority in a tent is durability, the Indus delivers. With the same impeccable construction as the rest of our tents, the Indus delivers four-season protection at a great value thanks to its heavier (read: more durable) materials.
Based on our popular CrossBow Four-Season tent, the Indus is simplified and beefed up to meet the demands of guides, river runners, overlanders, and outfitters of various kinds.
The Indus uses our Expedition Series fabrics and beefy #8 zippers to withstand wear and tear from clients, the dusty winds of the desert, and the withering UV of the high alpine. With non-hydrolyzing Sil/Sil (flysheet) and PE (floor) coatings, you'll probably be able to pass the Indus along to your kids (or their kids).
