Big agnes tiger wall platinum 2 tent review.

The oversized single door makes tent life a little easier and the weight savings is especially nice when out for multi day trip and gram counting. The verdictfor groundbreaking low weight livability sturdiness and good ventilation the big agnes tiger wall 2 platinum stands out as a top ultralight backpacking tent. My wife and i spend over 30 nights under the stars each summer and we were looking to replace our half dome 2 with something a little more lightweight and packable. Dual doors make it super convenient for couples to use while the spacious interior and superior ventilation provide highly livable internal space.

After exhaustive research into the world of ultra light backpacking tents we settled on the big agnes tiger wall 3 platinum. The big agnes tiger wall ul 2 is a double wall dome style tent for two people that s lightweight enough that it can be also be used as a palace for one with a canine friend if you have one. Two doors two vestibules free standing and with tons of extras you ve come to love on our full featured tents like pre cut guylines color coded webbing buckles and storage pockets. It s a semi freestanding double wall tent that weighs just 22 oz for the fly body and poles.

Instead it tries to do more while keeping in check its weight and price and remaining very easy to use. The tiger wall platinum tents take two door tent life to a crazylight new level. As a semi freestanding tent it shaves ounces by reducing the total number of pole segments required for setup. With the tiger wall ul3 you get a similar semi freestanding build but 10 more square feet of interior space and an additional 3 inches of headroom for a weight penalty of 7 ounces.

Big agnes tiger wall ul2 and ul3 the tiger wall ul was not designed to break records. The big agnes tiger wall ul2 earns one of our top pick awards for its outstanding balance between weight and comfort. We brought the two person tiger wall into utah s canyon country for this review and big agnes also makes the tent in a three person version for 50 more. But it s too delicate and expensive.

It s quick and easy to setup in the dark in a storm or by yourself.
