The Sea to Summit Escapist Evo Tarp – Medium RCS delivers ultralight versatility for minimalist adventurers who demand reliable shelter without excess weight. Designed for ultralight backpacking, it pitches easily with trekking poles using reinforced circular bar tacks and adjustable guy lines that can be tensioned from underneath the tarp. Upgraded for 2026, the recycled Ultra-Sil LS fabric absorbs less water, stretches less when wet and dries faster, ensuring a consistently taut pitch in changing conditions. With a wind-stable catenary cut and refined tie-out system, this tarp is built for those pushing deeper into the backcountry.
