TRAGOPAN - Mini Grouse Hide:
Back to the Roots of Mobile Hides!
Discover the Mini Grouse, our most compact and lightweight hide tent, designed for photographers and nature lovers seeking maximum discretion and unprecedented mobility in the field.
Ideal for short sessions, quick trips, and environments where every gram counts, the Mini Grouse is your ultimate ally for observing and photographing wildlife.
This model marks a return to the original dimensions of the very first Tragopan tent, renowned for its perfect balance between minimal bulk and efficiency in the field.
The Mini Grouse is a quick-set-up hide tent, combining lightness and discretion. Made of waterproof 150D Oxford polyester and coated with a black coating, it ensures perfect darkness inside, essential for remaining invisible to wildlife. Its ingenious design allows for instant deployment and easy transport, making it essential for traveling photographers.
For increased stability, this hide comes with two roof bars that fit midway up the inside corners, curving the roof and raising it by approximately 15 cm. Their use is optional but highly recommended in rainy weather or for extended installations to prevent water accumulation. They are also appreciated by taller people.
The hide has four external attachment points midway up each corner for attaching the four included guy lines and pegs, as well as straps at the base of the four corners for anchoring to the ground with four additional pegs. For additional camouflage, 12 cords are sewn to the outside for attaching branches, foliage, or reeds.
An interior pocket is positioned on one of the four sides of the hide, ideal for storing unused window modules or any other lightweight accessories.
The hide comes with detailed instructions for folding it. This operation, which may seem complex at first, will quickly become a formality after a few attempts. If you have any questions about using or setting up this blind, please do not hesitate to contact us.
Key Features & Benefits for Wildlife Photography:
Ultra-Compact and Lightweight: Designed for maximum portability, it slips easily onto or into a backpack, allowing you to move quickly and discreetly.
Optimal Discretion: TRAGOPAN's exclusive "Realistic Undergrowth" camouflage pattern blends perfectly into natural vegetation, guaranteeing total invisibility.
Fast Deployment: Its pop-up structure opens in seconds, allowing you to be operational as soon as the opportunity arises.
Essential Comfort: Despite its compact size, it offers ample space for the photographer and their equipment.
Modular Shooting Windows:
Main Door: Unique and equipped with a thick zipper, it opens and closes from the inside and outside. It can be opened halfway to create a large mesh window with an integrated sleeve for your telephoto lens.
Side Opportunity Windows: Both side panels feature discreet zippered windows. Ideal for quick shots when an animal approaches from the sides, they consist of a blackout zippered section and a mesh zippered section with a central slit.
Modular Main Front (Historical TRAGOPAN Configuration):
Versatile Tripod Pass-Through Opening: Allows shooting at ground level and the use of a spotting scope with a 45° eyepiece for digiscoping. This opening features a four-slider zipper: two central ones for inserting a tripod leg, a lower one creating an inverted T-shaped window 15 cm from the ground, and an upper one for a T-shaped window ideal for using a 45° telescope while comfortably seated.
Main opening for sleeves: A large, fully zippered, adjustable opening that can be raised using a cord system, incorporates a large blackout sleeve. The upper part of the sleeve opens via a zipper to create a small surveillance window. When the main flap is fully open, a mesh sleeve can be installed and secured with four hooks. This new, wider opening will be particularly appreciated by videographers.
