Backpacking & Lightweight Tents-Big Agnes Copper Spur UL3 XL Tent – Lichen Green-Mercury

The Big Agnes Copper Spur UL3 Extra Large is a three season, freestanding, ultralight tent. This long version givesyou 6-8 inches of extra length, 2″ of width, and 3-4″ of head height.

Since its launch in 2008, the award-winning Copper Spur has been Big Agnes’ most popular ultralight backpacking tent. Thanks to the proprietary HyperBead™ fabric, the latest Copper Spur UL is lighter, stronger, and more waterproof than ever!

High volume, freestanding design provides ample interior room and the stability to keep you sleeping soundly through the roughest backcountry nights. Fully featured, with design aspects that make the backcountry more comfortable – like multiple gear storage pockets, an awning-style door, and generous vestibule space. When ultralight comfort is the priority, the Copper Spur UL is your ultimate home away from home.

Material
The HyperBead™ fabric is engineered to perform season after season. This strong and durable fabric is 6% lighter, 25% more waterproof and 50% stronger than traditional fabrics, without added water-repellent chemicals

Comfort
The awning-style vestibule with double-zippers provides multiple access options and the smooth-closing, dual-zipper doors with easy-grip pulls allow for ease of entry, exit and quick, reach-through access. Quick Stash door-keeper makes stowing unzipped doors quick and easy. Expanded coverage with awning-style doors that can be supported with trekking poles (sold separately) or included extra guylines.

Multiple loops inside the inner tent allow for attaching gear lofts, accessories, and camp Lights. A 3-D bin ‘mezzanine’ at the foot provides elevated storage, an oversized ceiling pocket at the head provides additional storage; media pockets provide cord-routing for electronics.

Increased airflow with Low Vent capability on the vestibule doors and a high vent on the fly, combined with double sliders on the vestibule zippers for venting from the top or bottom.

Setup
Velcro tabs connect the fly to the pole structure, providing a perfect pitch and extra stability. Reflective guylines and webbing on tent corners make it easy to see at night.

The pre-bent span pole configuration with 4-way high-volume hub design increases strength, stability, and shedding. High volume, freestanding architecture provides generous liveable space and stability – no need to stake out corners for a full pitch! This freestanding design also means that the inner can be used alone, making it ideal for use in warmer climates. EZ Pack Stuff Sack with large length-wise opening and compression closure makes packing up simple and easy.
