Black Diamond Firstlight Tent: 2-Person 4-Season

Item #BLD1186 | 3 in Stock
3 Star Rating

good ascent tent

By Ranked #181 - 3-Season Tents April 20, 2011

I spent one night in this tent by myself and I thought is was just right, but I would hate to have to try and fit 2 people plus gear in this thing. I love how lightweight and simple it is, but because it's so lightweight it is kinda flimsy, tearing and leaking are real issues. I would like to have this as my second tent when I go out by myself and space and weight are primary issues, but I wouldn't recommend this tent for normal situations for 2 people.
