re poles bearbones will/can make custom length poles that fit nicely in a framebag/harness. I struggled with older tent poles that were just a little too long for a tarp, having a smaller pack size was much appreciated.
I've got a pretty solid plan for the poles. thanks for the heads up of the alpkit.
or I'm going to jus get some crappy giant aluminum ones with giant ridiculous segments and cut them down to 12 inches and re-shock cord them.
or just get some cheap trekking poles and modify them.

Can’t comment on the tents, other than to say Alpkit released a hiking pole supported tent recently as well? Seemed to get an ok reception and wasn’t too highly priced I recall. re poles bearbones will/can make custom length poles that fit nicely in a framebag/harness.
