    Seems like you could hike the Tensa Solo in to something like Beech camp (2.5 miles or less). I'd love to know whether you could legitimately backpack with one.

    No reason you couldn't, size isn't bad you'd just have to be ok w/ the weight.

    I've looked at the two trekking pole stand that he rigged up and once my lady gets a webbing harness sewn up I'll start experimenting w/ that setup. I don't carry trekking poles (I know, primitive) but she does so it might be worth it for her.

    They did the Mojave stretch of the PCT with the trees https://www.tensaoutdoor.com/tensa-t...v=7516fd43adaa

    I am thinking of getting just one when they are available gain and leaving the trekking pole tip at home. Though I despise adding weight to my pack.
