Clearance Quasar/Expedition Quasar Footprint Tent Accessories

Jump to: Our Verdict / Features / Specifications

A footprint might feel like extra weight, but with the right tent, it adds protection, flexibility, and peace of mind.

Terra Nova says

Although we are confident that our Terra Nova products will outperform any similar groundsheet fabric available, we recommend the use of a footprint to provide increased protection against sharp objects.

Our Verdict

Most manufacturers recommend using a footprint to extend the life of the groundsheet of your tent, but if you’ve just bought an ultralight tent, do you want to carry the extra weight associated with it?

We recommend using a footprint if you expect to camp on rough ground, especially with lightweight tents. Some footprints have other uses, such as pitching just the flysheet and footprint together as an ultralight shelter – so in this case, the footprint provides you with increased flexibility in your shelters. The footprint also does a great job of keeping the tent’s floor clean when your pitch is wet or muddy.
