Eureka! Apollo 9 Dome Tent (Sleeps 5) Overview

The Apollo 9 is a 2-pole rectangular dome tent that will provide comfortable shelter 3 seasons out of the year no matter where you go. Weather it’s a trip to the backcountry or to the campground, Eureka’s StormShield technology combines moisture repelling materials with a tough reinforced construction that resists wear and tear. Extra weatherproof design features a bathtub floor that wraps up the sides of the tent, keeping seams high above the ground and water outside. There is plenty of room in this 5-man tent with a 81 sq ft floor area and a 6' center height. Two vents and large areas of mesh in side walls enhance air circulation for added comfort. Two interior storage pockets are attached to keep your essential items handy. Another feature of the Apollo is quick set-up. The frame is made of durable shockcorded fiberglass poles that fit into color coded webbing with ring and pin attachments. Nothing better than a quick and easy set-up.

Eureka! Apollo 9 Dome Tent (Sleeps 5) Specifications

With an easy-to-set-up, two-pole design, the Eureka Apollo 9 dome tent provides comfortable shelter for up to five people whether you're hiking in the backcountry or driving to the campground. The Apollo 9 is designed using Eureka's StormShield technology, which combines moisture-repelling materials with a tough, reinforced construction that resists wear and tear. As a result, the tent keeps you warm and dry during spring, summer, and fall camping. The tent offers plenty of interior space despite its dome shape, with an 81-square-foot floor area and a center height of 6 feet. No one likes a swampy tent, which is why the Apollo 9 includes a pair of vents and sidewall mesh walls to ensure plenty of air circulation. And to keep rain from seeping in through the bottom, the tent features a bathtub floor that wraps the sides of the tent and keeps the seams high.

Other features include brims over the twin-track, side-opening door and rear window to protect from inclement weather; a durable, freestanding, shock-corded fiberglass frame with color-coded webbing and ring and pin attachments; and two interior storage pockets to keep your essential items handy.
