A vestibule offers 7 square feet of additional weather protected external storage space. Three interior mesh pockets provide places to stash gear and clothes while integrated gear loft loops offer a connection point for the Big Agnes Triangle Gear Loft sold separately.Ample mesh on the tent body and a large mesh door maximize cross ventilation and provide circulation to fight condensation build up. Coated with 1200mm waterproof polyurethane, the silicone treated rip stop nylon floor and rainfly are lightweight and durable. All of the Fly Creek 2 Platinum's seams are seal taped with waterproof, solvent free polyurethane tape no PVC or VOCs to further protect the tent from the elements.Lightweight, collapsible DAC Featherlite NFL poles provide the Fly Creek 2 Platinum with freestanding structure. The single hubpole design works in conjunction with the tent body's integrated DAC Twist Clips to make setting up the Fly Creek 2 Platinum fast, easy and intuitive. An eco friendly anodizing process is used by DAC to treat the poles without the toxic chemicals traditionally used on aluminum tent poles.When the weather is balmy and you really want to travel light, leave the tent body at home and use the rainfly alone with the optional Big Agnes Fly Creek UL 2 Footprint sold separately for a tarp style set up that weighs a mere 1 pound, 3 ounces!
