Black Diamond Fitzroy Tent 3-Person 4-Season

The Fitzroy tent has become a Bibler classic, sought after by mountaineers and backpackers for both its strength and roominess.The Fitzroy tent combines four Easton 7075 aluminum poles, seven pole intersections and a low profile to create a tent able to withstand the most angry storm. Weighing only 6 pounds, the Bibler Fitzroy tent provides the stability of a Mack truck with plenty of room for two people and gear. Much lighter than any other four-season tent in this size range, the Fitzroy tent has been designed to maximize headroom and usable floor space. Bibler's two-door construction ensures excellent ventilation during the summer and allows easy entry and exit, especially when winter camping. The tops of both doors on the Fitzroy have pole-supported awnings that cover zippered vents for controlled cross-ventilation, even in the worst conditions. Bibler's innovative three-point equalizing guy lines stake out each side of the tent in strong winds. Mesh pockets sewn inside hold easily lost items. As with all Bibler Tents, there are no pole sleeves to thread, so setup takes less than two minutes.

Bottom Line: Sleep with a legend.

Fitzroy is unbeatable

The Fitzroy is an all time classic 4-season shelter. I used this tent at 14,000' camp on Denali a couple years ago for a friend and I and it was perfect for two people for a couple of weeks. No issue with condensation inside the tent, and really warm as well. For three people it's a bit tight but totally fine for a few nights... just depends how close you are to your friends! I'm headed to Antarctica this fall and the Fitzroy is coming with me!

It says the tent is "Seam Sealed" on this site. Is it really? Why is everyone says they spent hours/days seam sealing it?

It's seam sealed after you seal it. Black Diamond sells their tents with a tube of sealant that YOU get to go over the stitching inside and out with. It's not super bad, just a bit tedious and time consuming. Set it up and seal it, it'll probably take a couple hours if you're good. If you're not, you will be by the time you're done. There was a noticeable difference between the seams where I started and the seams where I finished when I sealed my first BD tent.

Bibler Fitzroy

By:
August 3, 2007

I've used this tent for about eight years on everything from overnight backpacking trips to week long mountaineering and it's absolutely bomb proof. I've owned tents by Mt. Hardware, TNF, Noall and worked in outdoor retail over 10 years and no tent has impressed me as much as the Fitzroy, I'll always have a Bibler for the trips where I don't want to worry about what the weather throws my way. In good weather it opens up enough to stay cool, in rain it vents well with no condensation, and in the truly bad stuff it's drum tight and solid.

Hi, I'm looking for a vestibule for Black Diamond Fitzroy,

Hi, I'm looking for a vestibule for Black Diamond Fitzroy, I can not find it in the site. I want to know the price and delivery costs to Europe?
(in case it is possible)
Do you have experience of how long it takes with delivery to Europe ...?

Thanks in advance

Fitzroy Tent 3-Person 4-Season

I bought this tent for my husband. He said that his friend he most often backpacks with has this tent, and that it is a GREAT tent and a great gift. Except he and his friend find the tent not super easy to set up. Everything else about the tent is great though. :)

Up Date Bibler Fitzroy

By:
February 13, 2006

Had an opportunity to use the Fitzroy on a rainy camping trip. It held up beautifully. No leaks and no seepage to the inside. After using the Fitzroy about ten times it appears to be a great four season tent. It didn't have any problem with condensation buildup on the inside, either. This tent is a keeper.

Bibler Fitzroy

By:

This tent is fairly easy to set-up just do it at home before taking it on a camping trip. Having to seam seal a tent as expensive as this one is a bit disappointing. But if it keeps it waterproof I guess it is worth it. A bit small for two large adults. My son and I found it snug and he is only ten years old. It did not build up any condensation with both ends slightly vented and a pack towel hanging from one of the poles. Did not get a chance to test it in a downpour. That will be the ultimate test. I will up date when I'm out in a rain storm!

From BD's website
1) cut the applicator tip so the hole is slightly bigger so it is easier to dispense the sealer
2) after laying a bead of sealer on the seam run your finger over it to flatten it out making
sure it has covered the seam and and a little bit on each side of the seam
3) on the "double" seams, such as at the door, and the bottom corners of the tent,
I found that dispensing the sealer directly from the tube was easiest and allowed me to
lay it on a little thicker, especially around the snap

How the f does one seam seal a tent? Do you seriously have to do that with the newer fitzroy's?

Thanks!
