About Big Agnes

Headquartered in Steamboat Springs, the company is situated in a great area, with the Continental Divide Trail (CDT) running very close to Big Agnes. It's clear that the company is at the forefront of ultralight gear.

Big Agnes's most well-known tent designs are the Fly Creek, the Tiger Wall, and the Copper Spur. These tents are available in various sizes and material specifications, with all of them being among the lightest in their class.
Highlight the "crazylight" series with carbon poles and Dyneema outer tent.
In addition, the tents are also available in "bikepacking" versions, with short pole sets, special stuff sacks, and other bike-specific features.
Despite their very low weight, the tents offer a great sense of space. Not entirely unimportant on long tours ;-)

Materials:

Since its founding, Big Agnes has used partly exclusive materials, e.g., the lightest siliconized outer tent material. Also high-quality DAC aluminum poles and DAC pegs. For the current Tiger Wall and Fly Creek from the UL series, a new dyeing process is used that saves a lot of water and energy and is more UV-stable. Absolutely "state of the art".
Assembly is also child's play.
