Big Agnes Blacktail 2 Hotel Tent: 2-Person 3-Season

Blacktail 2 Tent combines lightweight versatility with durable comfort for backpackers

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"This tent is a solid choice for those who want reliability and ease of use without extra weight. It´s light enough to pack into the backcountry, spacious enough for two campers, and tough enough for car camping trips."

We love when a tent pulls double duty, and the Blacktail 2 Tent is one of the best for balancing backcountry performance with car camping comfort. Big Agnes has combined a lightweight build with durable recycled materials, making this tent an eco-conscious and rugged choice for all our adventures. Its symmetrical pole design with pre-bent sections maximizes headroom, giving us plenty of space to relax after a day on the trail. With two large doors and dual vestibules, we can easily stash our gear and enter or exit without disturbing our tentmate. Ventilation features keep air circulating, while the waterproof rainfly and floor ensure we stay dry when storms roll in.
