Discover the Plateau 5 – What makes this tipi stand out?
The Liteoutdoors Plateau 5 Tipi Tent is designed to be used in combination with a wood stove. This tent and stove pair is an absolute game changer in cold or wet weather. Roomy enough to sleep 3 with wood stove, or 5 without one, this tent is the perfect combination of spaciousness and portability. Crafted from 20D ripstop nylon with a silicone/polyurethane hybrid coating, it offers a lightweight yet robust shelter that’s exceptionally waterproof.
Key Features of the Plateau:
- Wood Stove Ready: A pre-installed stove jack allows a Liteoutdoors wood stove to be easily integrated. No alterations are required.
- Portable: Both tipi and stove will pack down and easily fit into a backpack.
- Seam-Sealed: Fully taped seams mean no need for messy, time-consuming seam sealing.
- Snow Skirt: The 9” snow skirt, also known as a sod cloth, creates a great barrier between you and the winter weather.
- Maximum Ventilation: Large mesh inserts high in the peak allow humid air to escape, leading to less condensation.
- Secure Stake Points: 9 Main webbing loops for stakes, and 8 secondary stake points ensure high stability in inclement weather.
- Guy-out Loops: various mid-panel webbing loops allow a tighter pitch that is more secure.
- Adjustable Center Pole: Choose between an aluminum or carbon fiber tent pole. The pole is adjustable for a perfect pitch.
- Everything Included: The Plateau teepee includes our Tent Stake Kit 12, featuring high-quality aluminum tent stakes, guy lines, and tensioners.
A New and Improved Plateau 5 – The Ultralight Version
In July 2021, we launched the Plateau 5 Ultralight Teepee Tent, offering all the same features with a 1 lb 3.8 oz. (560 g) weight reduction. This version maintains the durability of the standard Plateau while cutting excess unneeded weight.
Elevate Your Experience With a Wood Stove Package Deal
Pair your tent with a wood stove to utilize its full potential. This optional package includes a Liteoutdoors Large Titanium Stove with all necessary components, allowing you to create an amazing hot tent setup right out of the box. The package has everything you need, including an 8-foot titanium stove pipe and all hardware required.
Optional Additions for Your Camping Comfort
- Condensation Liner: The optional condensation liner is made from breathable, water-repellent fabric. It connects to the Plateau’s interior, creating a two-walled system for the bottom ⅔ of the tent. This helps mitigate condensation in humid conditions.
- Plateau Nest: Opt for the Plateau nest, a mesh wall/floor combination attaching to the inside of the Plateau. Ideal for protection during buggy seasons, a nest will convert your Liteoutdoors Tipi Tent into a summer haven. Note that using a stove with the nest requires modifications such as protecting the floor from heat, and installing a stove jack into the mesh wall.

You can not beat this tent/stove combo for the price. Great quality and top notch service. Just got it out for the weekend and performed flawlessly in the crappy weather. Both the tent and stove set up easy and work great. Looking forward to many years of late rifle and archery hunts with it
Thanks, Dave

This is a very hard to beat value in this product category. The tent goes up so easily with one person, and the stove is simple as well. found the stove a bit finicky to get going smoothly but figured it out.. Also came up with a cheat..take the stove out to clean out, stop at the camp fire and load with coals…presto, stove is drawing perfectly in an instant. All in all, a game changing piece of kit. Just spent 11 days on a sheep hunt and loved it.

Couldn’t be more satisfied with this combo purchase, used backcountry elk hunting in Idaho for the 2019 archery season and can say it’s money well spent!!!!!!

Great product from a Canadian company. Bought the combo stove and tent. Took it on a test run whitetail hunt in November with temps going down to -22C at night, stayed warm and dry. There was a small defect with my tent, the loop holding the guyline tore and ripped the seam. I emailed Brennan on a Sunday night and less than 12 hours later he got back to me and a new tent was on it’s way free of charge. Great customer service and an affordable, yet durable product.

Just got back from a three-day winter trip in the Alberta Forest Reserve. I had it snow-anchored and used all the guy-out points, and the tent was very roomy. The storm guy-outs kept the tent solid in the strong Chinook winds that blew at night. And then… it rained (!) on the last day there. The tent kept me dry with no issues (It kept me dry with no problems last summer, too, in a two-day steady rain).
I used a single-man dome tent as an inner tent, with a tarp for a floor on the snow with a stove, and I had an awesome time. I would recommend this tent to anyone.

I was initially on the fence about this tent/stove combo, as there are many more well known brands out there, but after using this tent and stove in the field, it is head and shoulders above the pack. The stove provides an excellent, long burn, and provides a great way to warm you up after a cold day in the mountains! It keeps the weather out, and gives you a palace in the hills. Couldn’t be happier with this purchase.

I have been using the plateau 5 tent with 18 inch stove for over 10 years now still using now, the snow flaps are perfect when snowing or rain
Edit from LiteOutdoors: Sheldon bought one of the first LiteOutdoors stoves that we sold, approx 7 years ago. When we started offering tents, he was again one of the first and has been using it for approx 4 years. Thanks Sheldon!

Got out my liteoutdoors pleatu 5 this weekend along with my 8×18 stove. It worked awesome! Held up great to high winds and rain. The tipi has alot of usable space, more than others I have used. This is due to the steep walls and the overall height. I was able to sleep much closer to the edges of the tipi than others I have used. The stove worked great, burned clean and held coals longer than I expected. Brennan’s customer service is some of the best I’ve encountered. This is a high quality, light option for back country hunters. Will sleep 3 people with a stove comfortably with gear stored outside. It’s a palace for 2 men and gear!
Awesome product, thanks brennan

I got the Plateau 5 Ultralight tent after months of research into floorless shelters with built in stove jacks for the backcountry. There wasn’t a ton of information out there while researching Lite Outdoors, but everything I found talked about great customer service and a quality product. After receiving it, I was immediately impressed with the quality of materials and components. The tent is a castle for the pack weight for 2 to 3 people. I had a small manufacturer defect with a guy line webbing loop, and emailed Brennen about it, and he was quick to respond with options to resolve the issue. Since resolved, the tent has performed flawlessly. The customer service and product has been top notch, and I will be a return customer for tent and stove components.

Absolutely fantastic tent and when paired with the titanium wood stove it was unbelievably light. I would definitely buy again. It made camping in the Rocky mountains a blast.

I bought this tent in 2021. I was blown away with the space once set up. Slept 3 guys with stove and minimal gear inside on a late October hunt.
In 2022 on a hunt the wind picked up overnight and actually snapped the carbon pole. I emailed Brennan and he quickly sent me a new one free of charge. My next purchase is going to be the nest for family backpacking trips.
Note from Liteoutdoors: Although we haven’t seen that many failures with the carbon poles, newer versions of the pole have been upgraded and strengthened to hopefully avoid any failures like this in the future.
