Great for solo adventuring, distance hiking, lightweight backpacking, climbing, camping, cycling, kayaking or canoeing, the Echo I is an innovative, durable, and one-man ultralight shelter.

This ultralight shelter consists of three modular components: a durable Cuben Fiber tarp, a detachable mesh tent insert for 100% insect and ground water protection, and a detachable vestibule for wind and storm protection.  Using all components together, the Echo I works like a traditional one-man tent at approximately half the weight.  Echo Shelter Systems can be pitched almost anywhere in just minutes.
