Big Agnes Sunnyside 3 Person Tent w/ Footprint

Roomy and lightweight, the Big Agnes Sunnyside 3-Person 3-Season Tent With Footprint is an ideal shelter for your Grand Canyon or Rocky Mountain camping trip. Set up is a snap with two cross poles and clips. This tent's fly and floor are seam sealed for protection during storms, and the fly creates two large vestibules, so you can keep your boots and pack dry. You could be seven feet tall and still have plenty of room to stretch out in the Sunnyside, which has 50 square feet of floor space. This entire backwoods condo weighs just over 6 pounds, and venting No See-Um mesh and two vents in the fly help the Sunnyside stay cool and comfortable. Two interior pockets let you stash your headlamp, sunglasses, beanie, and other items. Big Agnes included a footprint in case you want to leave the tent body behind and pitch a super-lightweight shelter.

Bottom Line: Lightweight and plenty of room to stretch out.

Descent Tent

By:
November 12, 2008

I have only had one chance to use the tent so far, but it was on a cold fall night, about 38 degrees, and it held up well. it is a thin tent but it stayed relatively warm. I like that it is small and compact to keep on a bag for hiking. I dont know what murdersux was talking about but the rain-fly, when installed correctly, kept the dew off just as it was supposed to do, and after letting the fly dry off for a while the next day, all folded back up with the rest of the tent and fit back into the bag nicely. Just fold it up on the original fold lines as it came. As for buying a wal-mart tent instead, the sunnyside is much better quality, with light and strong poles, strong zippers and good stitching. It is fairly expensive but it is a tent, when kept in good care, should last you a lifetime.

is it going to be sturdy enough to withstand high wind speeds?...

is it going to be sturdy enough to withstand high wind speeds? (be able to stay in the ground)? good stakes, tough material, wont rip in harsh conditions?

These tents are very sturdy, the stakes are awesome, and it won't rip, but if you're in high wind, it is really important to stake out the guy lines on the fly. They provide much needed lateral support in high wind. My tent has been in quite high winds, but the time I forgot to guy it out, a pole broke.

paid nearly 200usd and could have done better with cheap walmart tent. when i woke up in the morning, i was covered in a layer of morning dew. i had the rainfly on but that didnt really protect me from the elements outside. nearly impossible to repack into stuff sack provided. save your money and buy something, anything else.

Love this tent

This tent has been great in the Fall, Winter, Spring and Summer in North Georgia. My husband and I do a good bit of "light" camping and hiking and I've tested the tent in some part of the Appalachain Trail in North Georgia and Virginia and have been very pleased. The set up is super easy and the poles are extremely light, but feel sturdy as well!!! We love it

i do not beleive so other wise they would show it i would go to different sites and see if they have them to, they might have a different picture or you could ask one of the backcountry gear guys


I own the tent, and no the sides are not completely mesh but about 80% of it are, so there really isn't a whole lot of privacy if you are in a crowded camping spot and don't have your vestibule on.
