The Snugpak® All Weather Shelter G2 WGTE is an impressive 9.5 sq ft rhombus shaped tarp shelter, designed for Bushcraft, hiking, camping, and military use. It is the perfect complement to any outdoor pack and will provide versatile protection from all-weather elements. (The WGTE series is Weather Gear Tested Edition, products designed for, and tested in a wide range of weather conditions.)

Designed by experienced military veterans, the Snugpak® All Weather Shelter  can provide you with protection from Sun, Wind, Rain and Snow all year round. Designed as a diamond-shaped (Rhombus) tarp, the All Weather Shelter  can be configured as a Fly, Tarp, Lean-to Shelter, as well as other freestanding shelter designs, making it ideal for Wild Camping, Fast and Light Ventures and Expeditions or as an emergency shelter for both individuals and small groups; it can also be utilized as an emergency stretcher if necessary.

The shelter is an olive / light foliage green. It comes complete with (4) extendable Guy-Lines, (8) lightweight Alloy Tent Pegs, and a handled stuff sack .

Common Tarp Systems are often small and rectangular, making the design and construction of a suitable shelter for inclement weather difficult: The All Weather Shelter is 3m², allowing shelter designs to incorporate both users and their equipment in a variety of traditional tarp configurations, as well as more ingenious, free-standing styles, with other equipment, such as walking poles, paddles etc.

Free-standing Shelters can be constructed in environments and terrain without the traditional need of perfectly spaced trees. Using ordinary equipment, such as walking poles, the  Shelter  can be constructed so that is free-standing, in a variety of designs to protect the user in different configurations depending on the inclement weather. From standard 45° lean-to windbreakers to the encompassing protection of a Manta Shelter, the impressive 2000m Hydrostatic Head will keep you dry in wet weather.

Carried as an additional safety item for group leaders of outdoor activities, the All Weather Shelter  can be configured in a Big-Top Design, allowing 4 or more people to shelter underneath if caught in inclement weather, making it an ideal refuge that will allow you to prepare and change clothing if necessary.

In a time-critical emergency, where the situation dictates that a casualty needs to be moved for safety reasons, the Snugpak® All Weather Shelter G2 WGTE can be configured as an emergency stretcher. Simply fold the shelter in half to form a rectangle and then tie a large overhand knot in each corner.

Snugpak products are currently in use with the British, USA and Australian Armed Forces.
