Editor’s Comments (for the one person version):
Technically speaking there are lighter one person tents out there on the market. I know because I bought one… and then took it back to the shop for a refund when I realised how flimsy it was.
That tent had tiny wire skewers instead of tent pegs which kept pulling out of the ground and the published weight didn’t include all the parts. You had to add another sleeve over the pole if you wanted to make it watertight…all very iffy. Anyway that one went back to the shop and I ended up with a heavier tent, but that is because the Nordisk Telemark ULW hadn’t been invented at that time.
The ULW Telemark has proper ‘V’ shape tent pegs (albeit titanium with holes drilled though), impressive wind tunnel test results (you can watch the video), Hi-tech silicon-nylon and carbon fibre materials and is a finished product that looks taut and well manufactured… all of which inspires confidence.

The story behind the name:
Telemark is a county in south eastern Norway next to the Skagerrak coastline. It is a land covered with mountains, hills, valleys and lakes, hence its original name Bratsberg meaning ‘steep mountain’. Telemark offers a wide variety of national parks, picturesque fjells and plenty of possibilities for trekking in the summer and skiing in the winter.
