For over 20 years the Phoenix Mountaineering Company has been innovationary in tent design.

Their superior Geodesic structure and premium component usage will make them a serious contender in the Expedition supply market. New also is a range of Ultralite/Mountain Marathon models. The Marathon solo and Marathon 2 are 'Fast and Light', providing a secure but lightweight shelter for the night. Fully taped, down to the ground flysheets - fully taped, deep tray groundsheets and a list of premium components as long as your arm, make for a truly market leading range of tents.(click on an image below for model information)

WEATHERPROOF TENT FABRICS

Developed to cope with the worst of the UK weather, UV-lite has been thoroughly tried and tested in the Scottish Highlands and further afield in Himalayan & Alpine Europe.

Weatherproof

UV-Lite provides the ultimate protection from the rain. Silicone water repellent coating on top side - repels water better than a ducks back. PU coated, hot taped under side with hydrostatic head of 3500mm. Unlike Polyester, adhesion of coatings on Nylon fabrics is far greater, meaning Nylon fabrics are far less likely to delaminate

UV Resistant

Silicone treated Nylon provides an exceptional defence against harmful UV rays. After prolonged UV exposure UV-Lite retains more of it's original strength than

Polyester

Ideal strength to weight ratio - UV-Lite is constructed from rip-stop 70 denier Nylon fabric to give a perfect balance between strength and weight. It has a higher strength to weight ratio than Polyester, and under stress will have lower elongation and a greater percentage recovery. Nylon is five times more abrasion resistant than Polyester

STRONG

Innovative DAC Featherlite alloy poles provide the best strength to weight ratio currently available, 20% lighter on average and 10% stronger than other leading alloy poles. Featherlite poles are heat treated to T6 temper, which results in the aluminium being more tractable. The aluminium alloy used in Featherlite poles is recognised by the aerospace industry worldwide.

EASY TO PITCH

Reflective features make swift work of pitching tents in poor light/dark conditions. Innovative guy line adjusters are simple and quick to use especially when speed is of the essence. No nonsense flysheet attachments allow fly to be tightened/loosened to suit conditions
