A hybrid tarp and screened in bug shelter, the NEMO Bugout has versatility for paddling excursions, hammock camping, car camping trips, or backyard gatherings. The protective tarp-style top keeps out sun and rain and the mesh sidewalls maximize breathability while still banishing bugs.
Measuring 144" x 144", the shelter has a floor area of 144 square feet which is more than enough room for a full-size picnic table or a few NEMO camp chairs (sold separately). When pitched, it has a tall 84" internal peak height. NOTE: The Bugout is not freestanding. Poles are NOT included, but integrated connections points, guyout lines, and tie-offs enable you to pitch it from trees or with trekking poles or accessory poles. 75D PU-coated polyester on the roof effectively wards off glare and precipitation while no-see-um mesh side panels and doors maximize ventilation while keeping insects at bay. When there are no bugs in sight, the side walls can be rolled up and secured.
The NEMO Bugout includes stakes, guy-out cord, and a stuff sack.
