NORTENT Gamme 6 PC Expedition Tent
THE NORTENT GAMME 6 IS AN ICONIC EXPEDITION TENT
The inspiration for this tent comes in fact from an ancient Norwegian form of a hut. The Gamme has been used since the first people came to Norway and used by the Sami until today. The Gamme gave shelter and security to the indigenous people over centuries.
We have used a fabric that takes the best from two worlds, with the good properties of synthetic fabric and the good properties of cotton. With the Hybrid fabric consisting of polyester and cotton, we present a strong, breathable and relatively light fabric, compared to a 100% cotton canvas. This means that you can still pack the tent into the backpack, with the breathable and insulating properties of a cotton tent. To prevent the polycotton fabric from absorbing dirt and moisture from the ground, we have installed a very robust nylon section at the very bottom of the tent. This is able to withstand a rougher treatment where you may load it with snow and stones to make the tent even more stable in inclement weather.
Gamme 6 PC has a total of 5 poles that crosses at seven different points. In addition to the fact that this tent is free-standing with five aluminium poles, The Gamme 6 PC provides a hugely strong construction that can withstand severe weather and heavy snow-load.
