Big Agnes Blacktail 2 Person Backpacking Tent
The Blacktail 2, 2 person tent is light enough for the backpacking, and strong enough for the camping in the front country.
A tried and true shelter with excellent value for backpackers who want a super comfortable 2 person tent after a long day on the trail. The Blacktail 2 tent offers spacious sleeping areas with easy access through two, side-entry doors and vestibules, making early morning entry and exit with a tent-mate more stealth when nature calls.
