In 2000 Six Moon Design's founder Ron Moak really worked at reducing his pack weight for a hike of the Pacific Crest Trail. He incorporated a number of then state of the art ultralight gear along with his own ideas. Ron made much of his own gear.
Following his Pacific Crest Trail, he began thinking about a future hike of the Continental Divide Trail. He realized that an affordable, ultra-lightweight shelter was really needed. Months of planning and development resulted in the birth of Six Moon Designs.
In May 2002 SMD introduced their first product, The Europa Tent. The Europa was designed to be light, affordable, easy to set up, and sturdy enough to be used over a wide variety of back-country environments. Over the years they've introduced a variety of innovative products from the Starlite Pack to the Gatewood Cape. With the introduction of the new Skyscape Scout, they're looking to take ultralight in a whole new market of affordable shelters.
