Can anyone Identify this?

[RAPPLEBY2000]

Hi I've found this pic on the old "show me your shelter thread",
I'd been looking for this Camo design for ages but couldn't remember what it was called or where it's from

I think it's Stuart in the sleeping bag

I remember seeing a picture of a huge dome tent and pods of the same Camo, that could attach to it and a Poncho or Tarp.
Obviously designed for use around rocks. I don't think it's military (perhaps a trial)

It was i think from a mountainous European country like Italy/Austria/Swiss

Any Ideas?

it looks similar to a type of mossy oak although ive just been on thier website and cant see anything identical http://www.mossyoak.com/Camo/Obsession.aspx
defo seem civiy rather than military,be nice if it was a little closer(the pic) there is a website that has world (militay) cammo on it past and present been wracking my brain to think of the damn name.

just found it, http://www.kamouflage.net/global.php

Now that's what I call a link

this is the tent I wanted to find, a flippin good idea!(pancake pun!)

And from a distance it just looks like a pile of rock! in the shape of an octopus..with 6 legs (a hexapus?? )

An example of the camo pattern close up

Very well thought out system, i like the way theres even space for a dog!

This shows how adaptable it is each pod can be used on it's own or extended indefinitly

One of the "pods" on it's own as a one/two man tent

a view from inside note the bloke is resting whilst the woman works! nice! LOL

a brilliant idea shame you can't get stuff like it over here

I've moved this "found" info over to "Kit chatter"

I wonder what the point (for the military, anyway) of camouflage patterns is these days? It only take a thermal imaging camera and you're caught/done anyway? Surely, you can't still hide a soldier from another soldier now with just patterns? Just idle thoughts...

Nice tent, Richards. Looks a bit big for us bushy type??

most of todays conflicts seem to be Soldier (of a country) against terrorist,freedom fighter,call them what you will ,who probably dont have access to infa red/or thermal sensing etc, i wouldnt say average camo stops you being seen just breaks up your shape/blends you in to background,etc to make it harder to get off a good shot at you,
back to thread is this then a Norwegian civy kit specifically for Mountainous regions?
