Big Agnes Salt Creek 2 Tent 2-Person 3-Season

As a recipient of Backpacker Magazine’s 2009 Editor’s Choice Green Award, the Salt Creek 2 Tent is not only a lightweight backpacking tent, but is also a beacon of sustainability for the outdoor industry.

  • DAC hubbed pole features eco-friendly anodizing and makes setup simple
  • Tent and rain fly fabrics made from dye-free recycled polyester to lower impact
  • Seams fully taped with solvent- and PVC-free seam tape
  • Side vestibule can be rolled up or staked out with trekking poles as a sun shade
  • Optional footprint (sold separately) works with pole and rain fly to make an ultralight shelter

Bottom Line: Even the zippers are recycled.

The tent and rain fly fabrics made from dye-free recycled polyester. I don't know where you got the decomposing carbon idea.

If properly cared for, this tent will last as long or longer than any other tent made from non-recycled materials. It too is subject to mold & UV damage like all other tents. The floor & fly are both silicone treated with a polyurethane coating making it very waterproof & the body is recycled mesh making it very breathable. I don't see much difference between this tent & one made from new materials other than the green factor.
