Offering massive interior space that’s truly unmatched for its weight class, Aurora™ is a worthy investment for the adventurer that loves a roomy shelter when car camping and backpacking. Updated with premium hardware and features, this tent now also measures up to NEMO’s high sustainability standards with a PFAS-, FRC-free fabric suite and bluesign® approved recycled floor.
Aurora’s vertical sidewalls and massive doors allow for comfortable side-by-side seating and the lightweight aluminum pole set includes a custom forged hub, part of NEMO’s new Elements™ hardware collection. Interior gear pockets keep personal items organized and at hand, while overhead Nightlight Pockets™ diffuse headlamp light to cast a warm glow at night.
Packed in a Divvy Cube™ stuff sack, Aurora can be more efficiently stowed in a backpack, especially when the poles are removed to share the weight with a friend. A complementary tent footprint is included to help extend the lifespan of the tent, protecting it from rough terrain and abrasion.
