Tent, Ridged, small

One-person ridge-pole tent; tight profile resists wind, packs readily.

A single-person ridge-pole tent of oiled linen, snug and light, with a pitched roof angled to shed rain. The frame of ash wood sections lashes together quickly; the ends close and the sides stake flat. Messengers, rangers, and solitary scouts carry them; the tight profile offers minimal wind resistance and packs readily.
