Big Agnes Shield Tent 2 Person 4 Season

Common convention has it that lightweight tents sacrifice strength, while solidly built tents gain strength and security at the cost of pack busting weight. Not here the Big Agnes Shield 2 Person 4 Season Tent combines the best of lightweight, easy packing bliss with the sturdy structure required for alpine missions and far flung expeditions in every season. This tent is a great choice if you're setting up base camp at high altitudes where even summer months bring a wide variety of inclement conditions. In fact, the 3 layer waterproofbreathable membrane, fully taped seams, and PU coated floor ensure maximum protection from oncoming squalls, soaking wet ground, and snowy campsites. Although single wall tents are best known for their warmth and sturdiness in wintertime and shoulder seasons, the Shield's electrospun nanofibers actively pull moisture off the inner tent walls for increased breathability rated at 3000 gm2 on stifling summer evenings. Going one step further for breathability, fly vents disperse condensation build up as you're sleeping soundly. The secret to its lightweight, yet surprisingly robust structure lies within a single wall design, complete with DAC Featherlite NSL poles for exceptional an strength to weight ratio. There's only one door, which is actually a good thing when barreling winds threaten to blow through your tent. Lightweight Mega X stakes and heavy duty guylines keep the tent firmly secured to the ground in heavy winds, and reflective webbing along the guylines prevents tripping in low light. You can add an Accessory Vestibule from Big Agnes not included for protective storage of packs and gear. Four interior mesh pockets handily store extra gear and small accessories. Plus, there's the option for a variety of cool add on lofts, ranging from Big Agnes' PowerCase for charging gadgets to the Wall Loft for harmonious gear organization both sold separately.
