The Meramac series tents are all free standing 2-pole designs with shock corded fiberglass with aluminum ferrules. The ferrules are the "connectors" that hold the poles together and ALPS uses aluminum, rather than steel, because aluminum can never rust. Theirfiberglass poles are also normally one size larger than normal to offer you a sturdier, stronger tent. Theyuse lightweight but strong polyester fabrics. The side walls are uncoated so the tent can "breathe" under the urethane coated fly. The fly uses a pole in the top, which gives you an awning over each door for excellent rain protection.
