Outfitter and Guide Tents, Yurts, and Domes

Shelter Systems' Tents, Yurts, and Domes are ideally suited for outfitters and guides. They are lighter, stronger and roomier then the wall tents that outfitters and guides traditionally choose when heading into the back county. Our Outfitter and Guide Tents, Yurts and Domes are spacious enough for group dining, sleeping quarters and make weathering a storm a pleasure.

"Just wanted to let you know that we purchased two of your domes to use as dining tents on our treks in Bhutan. They were a HUGE hit with our clients and our local trek staff as well. The trekkers came to call the 20' dome the "Taj Mahal" and enjoyed luxuriating in the roomy interior. We did have one gusty day that lifted the dome off the ground (our staff hadn't tied the guy lines tightly enough) but other than that, they held up extremely well. If you are interested in any photos, we hope to have some up on our site in the next few weeks. Look at our site and go to the Bhutan section (go to Asia first, then to Bhutan). All the best!

Sturdy Design
Shelter Systems' Outfitter and Guide Tents, Yurts and Domes are made wholly of a superstrong woven ripstop film which is watertight and will not rot or mildew. By using a combination of materials we provide shelters that will make your clients feel at home.

The frames are constructed of strong, long-lasting Class 200 PVC tubing. Shelter Systems' own patented Grip Clips join the dome's cover to the frame. Grip Clips provide greater strength than sewn seams or any type of grommet because they do not puncture the cover. Each panel of Shelter Systems' Outfitter and Guide Tents, Yurts and Domes are shingled over the next so that the domes breathe yet are completely leakproof!

Light and Fresh Air
Shelter Systems' Outfitter and Guide Tents, Yurts and Domes: 14' (4.2m), 18' (5.4m), and 20' (6m) each have four flap doors evenly spaced around the dome. The door coverings close automatically so you can go in or out quickly. There are no zippers to fumble with or break. For maximum ventilation the walls themselves can be rolled up. There is always plenty of light and fresh air in the Shelter Systems' Outfitter and Guide Tents, Yurts and Domes.

Easy Set Up
You will be pleased with how easily our Outfitter and Guide Tents, Yurts and Domes go up in 30 minutes without tools. You simply insert interchangeable poles into factory-attached connectors spaced evenly over the cover. The poles bend slightly when inserted, which tightens the cover into a wind- and waterproof dynamic shelter. Turn or move the dome into desired position. It's easy to take the dome down also; just remove the poles and roll up the dome.

A Shelter System
Shelter Systems' Outfitter and Guide Tents, Yurts and Domes come complete with stakes, guy lines, vent tubes, spare parts and an instruction booklet that details floors, site selection, anchoring, cooling, winterizing, and stove installation. Domes in desert

Accessories. Floors, net doors, porches and liners to make your shelter more comfortable.

Sizes. A drawing comparing the sizes of some of our domes.

You get a lot more volume as a shelter's diameter increases. When you step inside the 18' after being in the 14' m, the 18' feels twice as big. The 20' feels twice the size of the 18'. This is because the size in diameter extends out in all directions (including up), creating a large increase in volume. Since the surface area of the covering does not increase as rapidly as the volume, the larger domes are less expensive.
