Description
Ultra-lightweight functional tarp used in the wilderness
Voss 5 LW tarp is one of the world’s lightest portable shelters. Although the flysheet weight is only 170 grams, no compromises have been made in regards
to functionality. It has a total of 8 attachment points; one at each corner, one centred on each edge, plus one centred on the top side of the flysheet. On the bottom side, an elastic cord is pre-attached to the tarp which can be used to fix a pole in the centre or as a compression strap when the tarp is packed down. Voss 5 LW comes with 6 removable guy ropes, complete with guy line sliders and aluminium hooks for fast and easy setup. Altogether, the Voss 5 LW has a total weight of only 240 grams and an absolute minimal pack size.

The story behind the name
Voss is a municipality in Hordaland county, Norway, and the nature here offers both high barren mountains and rich fertile valleys with large coniferous forests and widespread wetland areas, hosting more than 155 species of birds. In Norse Vǫrs means "wave" or "sea". Today Voss is mostly known as a winter sports center with many famous world-class athletes within biathlon and skiing coming from here.
