Big Agnes Gold Camp 3 Tarp

$199.95

Go Gold

Ditch the standard backpacking tent and go with the Gold Camp 3 Tarp from Big Agnes. It's significantly lighter and packs smaller than most 2-person backpacking tents, and this it has enough space for groups of three. It's an absolute necessity for alpinists with packs full of climbing gear, but any backpacker can appreciate its small, light design on the trail. This pyramid shelter even has a unique adjustable design that gives you more head space when you're solo-packing, or you can prioritize internal space when you have tons of gear. Big Agnes made the tarp out of polyester taffeta with a PU coating that provides similar wet weather protection as most rain flies out there. Be sure to check out the Gold Camp 3 Mesh Inner and Gold Camp 3 Footprint if you want a floor for this shelter.
