Big agnes scout 2 platinum review.

Big agnes copper spur 2 platinum tent review by mac 8 comments the big agnes copper spur 2 platinum is a lightweight freestanding two person backpacking tent that s for anyone willing to spend 600 on their miniature house for the outdoors or as i like to call it my palace. The ultralight big agnes scout 2 tent line is a new school take on old school a frames. This is less of a tent and more like a super spacious bivy sack. Don t forget your trekking poles or accessory poles not included when hiking with this tent as it won t stay up without them.

Big agnes scout 2 platinum crazylight backpacking tent what is behind the name. Simple single wall shelter uses trekking poles for support and offers ample floor space and excellent venting. This is built for the minimalist that likes a little extra space. The weight 1 lb 5 oz 595 g is such that the word crazylight used in the name sounds appropriate.

The result is a minimalist shelter that will appeal to backpackers who accept the livability tradeoffs. The big agnes scout 2 platinum tent is a single wall tent for crazylight trail adventures. Single wall construction trekking pole support siliconized nylon and no vestibules. The design of the 17 oz scout 2 platinum and the dyneema 11 oz scout 2 carbon also available are both based on the classic 26 oz big agnes scout ul 2 see our vintage review from 2015 which was a more.

This is the name they use for this tent on amazon. The design of the 17 oz scout 2 platinum and the dyneema 11 oz scout 2 carbon also available are both based on the classic 26 oz big agnes scout ul 2 see our vintage review from 2015 which was a more affordable lightweight pup style tent. At 1lb 1oz the scout unburdens your pack so you can fit a few extra layers for quick changing alpine conditions. With the scout 2 platinum tent from big agnes nothing will slow you down especially not weight.

The big weight savers. At just 1lb 1oz trail weight the 1 door wonder can sleep two. If the sky does open up no worries the silicone treated external material beads and moves moisture down and off the tent so you stay bone dry in your lightweight shelter. Our scout 2 platinum is a single wall insanely lightweight yet roomy trail phenom.

The big agnes scout ul 2 is an ultralight cross between a classic pub tent and an a frame tarp. The big agnes scout 1 platinum stands out for its superior ultralight construction weighing in at a meager 1 1 pounds with all included components. It packs so small it stows more like a jacket than a tent.
