Most ultralight shelters are fairly spartan. The Hornet is different, offering greater comfort and living space on the trail without adding weight. Its minimalist design utilises a single pole construction for quick set-up. Cutting-edge fabrics provide weather protection without inhibiting breathability. Triangular corner struts and a unique lightweight pole clip increase the internal volume while shaving grams. It all results in a tiny package that still boasts genuine liveability for two hikers, thanks to its practical twin doors and porches.
The idea of NEMO was born one turbulent night on the side of Mount Washington while Cam Brensinger spent a sleepless five hours in a poorly designed bivy. That night he realised how much opportunity there was for thoughtful design as part of the equation of enjoying adventure. And, coming down off the mountain the next day, he resolved to tackle that challenge. Three days after graduation from Rhode Island School of Design, he founded NEMO Equipment.
