Just want to clarify the weight on this tent. I think BackCountry has it listed incorrectly. From the manufacturer's press release, "Big Agnes’ Copper Spur UL4 tent was one of only 13 innovative products that have been honored with a 2011 Backpacker Editors’ Choice Award. The new Copper Spur UL4 tent is a free standing, three-season, ultralight backpacking tent featuring double doors and vestibules and weighs in at only 5 lbs 10 oz."

You're right, the stated weight in the specs here is the fast-fly weight, not trail weight. For packed weight, with everything, and adding a footprint, your total weight goes up to 6lbs 15oz. here's all the specs from BA- Copper Spur UL4 Trail Weight 5lb 10oz Packed Weight 6lb 3oz Footprint Weight 12oz Fast Fly Weight 4lb 3oz Packed Size 8x22 Floor Area 57sq ft Vestibule Area 13.5/13.5sq ft Head Height 50"
