Gear Review
I'm totally sold on Big Agnes
By Jason Cocklin
Ranked #1900 - 3-Season Tents
January 4, 2009
I got this tent because of the weight and potential configurations with the footprint. If you get the footprint, this tent can be three totally functional, very different tents. My first trip with this tent was a short, two night excursion and the first night was 16 degrees F with 50mph gusts. We slept through the night in this 4.5lb tent! The vestibule is functional, but not huge. Ventilation is fantastic, but the wind doesn't sneak in under the fly. I've only tried two people with gear and it was decent. You could sleep 3, but the gear would have to stay outside and in the vestibule.
Bottom Line: Awesome, lightweight, versatile.
