*Updated Model*
The Blacktail 2 Backpacking Tent by Big Agnes is a reliable classic that is lightweight enough for backcountry travel, yet sturdy enough for front country use.
This versatile tent ticks all the boxes, offering a lightweight design for hikers seeking a comfortable shelter after a long day on the trail, as well as great value for car campers in need of a compact and easy to set up tent.
Its rugged, recycled fabric ensures both durability and sustainability, without compromising on weight. Spacious sleeping areas and two side-entry doors with vestibules make for easy entry and exit with a tent mate, even in the early morning.
No matter where your adventures may lead, rest comfortably in the Blacktail.
