Moondance 1 FN: On Snow. By Doug Chatten

September 03, 2020

Mont Ambassador Doug Chatten in the NSW Snowy Mountains with his Mont Moondance 1 Full Nylon Tent

“I had an excellent tour on the Main Range with clients recently largely in part due to the awesomeness of the Moondance 1 Full Nylon (FN). Wow, the perfect guides tent, plenty of room, and able to sit up and cook comfortably. Very easy and quick to pitch and not much bigger than my emergency shelter. A real winner! After seeing the benefits the Moondance 1 FN provides, the guys I was with are rethinking the whole commitment of a basecamp style expedition stay.”

The guy system on the Moondance and Dragonfly Tents provides adjustability for peg placement, without compromising the stability of the tent even in high winds.

I had brought my Mont Helium 680 with me. A luxurious bag rated to -12°C for warm sleepers, it is perfectly suited to Tasmania’s cooler months. Ice crusted the ground and tent the next morning and checking my temperature sensor I was surprised to see that the temperature had dropped to -7.7°C overnight. That is remarkably cool for late October in Tassie!

Tasmania has had a burst of late snowfalls recently and I headed up into the mountains yesterday to take advantage of a patch of fine weather. Unfortunately, the snow has coincided with very windy weather which makes conditions in the mountains challenging (but invigorating) for photography.
