Alps Mountaineering

Dennis Brune started Alps Mountaineering in rural Missouri with one goal in mind: to offer performance-oriented outdoor gear at an affordable price. A truly homegrown business with a highly qualified staff, Alps Mountaineering listens to its consumers and designs accordingly, incorporating customer suggestions into their designs for packs, tents, sleeping bags, and other outdoor gear. All products are made of premium materials and tested in multiple outdoor environments—from the Grand Canyon to the Appalachian Trail—to assure that they are worthy of the company’s lifetime guarantee.

Comments:
We purchased this table for car camping trips. It's lightweight but stable and comes in it's own carry bag you can throw over your shoulder. Set up took longer than expected because had more "parts" than I was expecting but was easy to assemble. I realized that after setting up it up the reason for the "extra" parts was to make the table stable. We set it up on a rocky hill at our campsite to put our "food stuff" on and it never rocked, sagged or shifted. We even played cards on it one nite and were very pleased. The med size table is plenty big enough to set up a cook stove on one end and 2 people can eat at the other end. My only 2 complaints are: sometimes the slats pop out of the frame and those edges are a bit sharp and being 42" long, it's a tight fit into my very small car with my other camping gear. Overall I'm very happy with this table.

I use this for hammock camping. I place it in my HENNESSY HAMMOCK and it allows me to use in temperatures below 30 F. The insulating ability of this is great and it is comfortable for tent camping also. Easy to inflate. Just unscrew the caps. Tough to deflate. It takes a bit of work and struggle to get it small enough to fit in the straps and carry bag. I recommend it to all for car camping, a spare mattress. A FINE PRODUCT Tom

Alps Mountaineering Camp Cot - Extra Large
 
Uncomfotable!!
By mk from Syracuse, NY on 09/24/2009
Pros:
Compact, Easy Set Up
Describe Yourself:
Casual Adventurer
Bottom Line:
No, I would not recommend this to a friend
Comments:
This cot might be useful with a mat on top of it for back support. I layed on it for 2 min. and had a terrible backache. It might be good for getting off the damp ground because it is quite high off the ground but it would not fit in a small tent. It is big! It would be useful for a tall person with a tough back. I sent it back because I would be crippled if I slept on it for a night.

Alps Mountaineering Zenith 3 AL Tent - 3-Person, 3-Season
 
Excellent for 2 people
By Fairfax from Fairfax, CA on 09/21/2009

Comfortable, Easy To Set Up, Lightweight, Sturdy, Waterproof
Best Uses:
Backpacking
Describe Yourself:
Casual Adventurer
What Is Your Gear Style:
Comfort Driven
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
Comments:
This is a nice tent for 2. It's compact and reasonably light, especially for the price. The pockets, doors and gear loft are all well designed. I also like the fact that the color is pretty unobtrusive. My only complaints, which are very minor, are that I had to make a ground tarp for it (sheet of plastic, no big deal) and that the rain fly does not create a very convenient vestibule. Also, this tent would probably not take a ton of wind from the wrong direction. But for the price, it's a steal.

Alps Mountaineering Wilderness Tent - 4-Person, 3-Season
 
Fair weather tent
By Wheels 195Verified Reviewer from Pennsburg, PA on 09/21/2009
Pros:
Comfortable, Easy To Set Up
Cons:
Poor Fly Design
Best Uses:
Car Camping
Describe Yourself:
Casual Adventurer
Bottom Line:
No, I would not recommend this to a friend
Comments:
The tent is roomy and comfortable; fly is too small for full rain protection and provided stakes are flimsy. Everything was OK,though, until wind picked up to about 15-20 mph - then it started folding in. Can't say this makes it practical if you need to rely on the tent and don't have an alternative.

Alps Mountaineering Compression Stuff Sack - Extra Large
 
stupid design
By mark from seattle on 09/17/2009
Describe Yourself:
Casual/ Recreational
What Is Your Gear Style:
Comfort Driven
Bottom Line:
No, I would not recommend this to a friend
Comments:
the ends of this compression sack are separate pieces joined by straps with a long tube in the middle and so it is very awkward to use. I couldn't get my bag in it in 5 minutes and gave up so I am returning it.
