Blacktail tents are a tried and true Big Agnes classic - light enough for the backcountry, and strong enough for the front country.
The Blacktail checks every box - lightweight design for backpackers who want a super comfortable tent after a long day on the trail, and excellent value for car campers looking for an easy to set up shelter with a small footprint. Burly recycled fabric means that you won't have to sacrifice durability for weight savings or sustainability - you get it all! Spacious sleeping areas and easy access through two side-entry doors and vestibules make early morning entry and exit with a tentmate a breeze when nature calls.
No matter where your adventure takes you, camp comfy in a Blacktail!
