Sea To Summit Telos TR2 Plus - Green

Sea To Summit Telos TR2 Plus - Green: Extended-Season Freestanding Two-Person Backpacking Tent

Built for backpackers who demand Telos performance across a wider range of conditions. The Sea to Summit Telos TR2 Plus in Green delivers everything that earned the standard Telos TR2 a Backpacker Magazine Editor's Choice Award — signature Tension Ridge architecture, six setup configurations, and FairShare storage — upgraded with a solid ripstop nylon inner tent and an enhanced 4,000mm waterproof floor that extend usability deep into shoulder seasons and cold-weather conditions. For South African backpackers tackling the Drakensberg in winter or the Cape mountains in unpredictable shoulder conditions, the Telos TR2 Plus in Green is the benchmark 3+ season freestanding shelter.

Key Benefits:

* Solid Ripstop Nylon Inner Tent: The defining Plus upgrade — solid 20D breathable ripstop nylon side panels with mesh venting at the top block cold drafts and wind penetration that would compromise a standard mesh inner, extending comfortable use into early spring, late autumn, and cold highveld nights
* Enhanced 4,000mm Waterproof Floor: Higher-specification 30D ripstop nylon tub floor at 4,000mm hydrostatic head — significantly more waterproof than the standard Telos TR2's 2,500mm floor — built for wet and boggy ground conditions without requiring a footprint
* Tension Ridge Architecture: Unique inverted brow pole bends upward to create near-vertical walls, tall door openings, and 43.5 inches of peak height — delivering dramatically more head and shoulder space than conventional backpacking tents and making the Plus feel as spacious as the standard model despite the added weather protection
* Six Setup Configurations: Classic inner-first, fly-only tarp mode, dry setup fly-first, star-gazing mode, Hangout Mode semi-open shelter, and footprint-plus-fly pitch — full versatility retained across all conditions from cold shoulder-season mountain camps to summer overnight trails
* Apex Vent and Baseline Vent System: Oversized Apex Vent at the tent's highest point with up to 70% better airflow than mesh-restricted vents, combined with adjustable Baseline Vents — solid inner panels include unzippable vents to manage condensation without sacrificing cold-air blocking performance
* Premium DAC Featherlight Poles and Hardware: Colour-coded DAC Featherlight NSL aluminium poles with Quick Connect machined aluminium feet, YKK zippers, and 7-series aluminium hardware throughout — the same premium construction standard as the standard Telos TR2 with no compromise on durability

The Telos TR2 Plus in Green occupies the sweet spot between three-season agility and four-season protection — suited to backpackers who camp past the comfortable summer window into colder, wetter, windier conditions. The solid inner can be swapped for a mesh inner (purchased separately) to convert the Plus back to warm-weather use, giving you effectively two tents in one pole and fly system. At 3 lbs 12 oz packed across three FairShare stuff sacks, the TR2 Plus in Green is the most adaptable freestanding shelter available for South African backcountry adventurers who don't stop when the season turns.
