BIG AGNESCopper Spur HV UL - UltralightBackpacking Tent

I searched everywhere for a 4 man tent that could be used for my family of me, my wife and two sons for lightweight backpacking. After months of web searching decided on this. Have just returned from three days use in the Cairngorm Mountains in Scotland and overall we are impressed! The tent easily fits us all and in the wet weather we were able to store wet packs and waterproofs in one porch and cook in the other. I was worried about the stability, but it did handle 35mph winds, for the weather I need it for it was fine, for really bad weather i.e. Scottish high level camping I would use a heavier 4 season tent. I made sure it was pitched correctly and I did use extra long strong pegs, plus all guys out. The tent did buck and boom A LOT, but it held, although it is noisy as fly creaks over poles. There was one point early in the night where one of the poles bowed in rather alarmingly, but I retightened all the anchor points - which had slackened off slightly, and it didn't happen again even though the winds increased. As the dad I never sleep well in bad weather, but the tent stood up to the gusts and the family slept. It endured prolonged, wind driven torrential rain and we stayed completely dry. No condensation even with the four of us in the tent in cool 6ºc temps. I did put an old shower curtain under the groundsheet to protect it - I will probably buy the footprint. We had to strip down in the rain and managed to pack everything including the inner from within the fly (tricky without the proper footprint, but 'do-able') emerging to quickly pack the rain soaked fly in a dry bag for the walk out. For what we need, 3 season backpacking, it is ideal.

Love this tent. It is awesome. Lightweight, very well made, easy to put up and lots of room. Spent 4 days wildcamping in Glenco and it was a dream. Love the LED lights too.

Arrived ripped and damaged, clearly used and returned by someone then sent out to us. Shocked at the state of this item since it's a high value item. Don't buy this item here, try a smaller retailer who will take the due care. So disappointed at the awful customer service here and just really poor experience.

This is an expensive tent but I really like what it offers so far. It goes up in minutes super simply and the cross bar pole gives extra room inside.Plenty of storage space with the inside nets. The vestibule areas are a good size for packs and boots to be stored and the weight of this thing is incredibly light.I like how the outer doors can be propped up with tracking poles to provide outside shelter when sitting/cooking.The in built lights are a cute touch but I think most weight saving people would get the version without it.I’ve found it to deal with condensation quite well at both mild wether nights (15’c) and cold weather (-4’c) there’s a single vent that can be propped open and helps a lot.I bought this as a solo tent where I can store things inside next to me. However my girlfriend and I fit just about, me being 5’10” and her 5’. Both slim/athletic. If you’re taller or wider it may be a different story.Cons with this tent is that you have to put up the inner netted part first so in bad weather water will get in when putting it up. Unless you pay a heap more for the ground sheet. And can find it in stock anywhere. I use a separate ground sheet so have to be quick if it’s raining.I haven’t used this tent in sustained rain and cannot say how well it does in a prolonged downpour so it’s the only thing I have yet to see how the tent does. So I may have to update when I get a full day of rain.Would recommend so far.

Fully freestanding is what makes this tent so awesome. Two large vestibules, side entry, great headroom, and good quality materials are icing on the cake. The sides are held taut and flat to the ground; no flapping, sagging, or floor/side wrinkles like the BA Fly Creek. It’s basically a miniature car camping dome tent. I’ve backpacked with tarps, tarp tents, single wall tents, and double wall semi-freestanding tents, and none compare to the easy set up and protection offered by the Copper Spur. It is worth carrying the extra weight for the headroom alone and to never again set up a semi-freestanding tent short a corner stake because of rocks. I would rather have not had the “awning” feature, it is more trouble than it is worth. The tent in its bag is a little large and takes up valuable space, so I carry the poles and stakes on the outside of my pack and the tent inside. I love this tent.

Haven’t taken the tent out yet so this is only half of a review. Will update after I hit the trail.I can say setup is easy and the tent is super light. I doubled my interior space while taking a pound off my dry weight. The material seems very thin but only time will tell.In order to tie the tent down for severe weather you need more stakes than the company provides. Not a game changer but if you plan on really severe weather you will need 12 not 8.The dual vestibules are a really nice touch. Given im a single camper my gear will be in the tent with me but to shelter wood, chairs etc at night will be very welcome.The conversion of a vestibule wall to a rain roof using trekking poles sounds better than it is. Having the “roof” to cook during the rain is a nice touch but if you have any wind the roof will be useless and the rain will likely get in your tent. (Used a sprinkler test and gusts of wind blew the water right into the tent wall). With the vestibule down, the tent was perfectly dry and shed the water without any problem.I’m really excited about this tent and have found no problems in back yard testing. I will update after my next trip which will be a winter camp.UPDATE- everything I wanted and then some! What a great tent. Fits perfectly in the long side-pocket of my GG mariposa. Made it through a really bad storm no issues. Set up easy peasy in the field. Lots of interior room at the same weight of most one man tents. Freestanding for my next trip into the high Sierras. Get this tent!Update #2. New info worth mentioning!! Sitting in camp in the great sand dunes nat park. Got a weather alert over the ZOLEO. 60-70 mph dust storm on the way!!!! Handled it like a champ. The wind speeds in our sheltered area were probably around 30-40 max but it keept about 90% of the sand out and stood up to hard winds for 3 days straight. Excellent product that continues to impress!!

0 stars to the outfit that picked up and "delivered" this package. Package was "lost" and I never received it, even though it was marked as delivered.5 stars for the tent itself. I found one locally. It is very light and easy to pitch, and packs into the smallest package I have ever seen a 2 person tent go into.

I've taken this tent on two long hikes in Wind River, WY, and the ND Badlands. Pack weight is a key consideration, and I love how light it is. Despite the light weight, the tent has held up through some challenging conditions. We had hard rain and heavy winds most nights in the Winds, and I slept soundly through the storms. The tent is also super easy to set up - takes about five minutes and is very intuitive. I also love the inner overhead pockets - great way to store items you may need quick access to.

I use this tent mostly for back packing. Great light weight tent that can quickly be setup. It is waterproof and I've camped with it in the rain. It vents well so you don't wake up with condensation on the tent walls. The small vestibule is great for storing shoes and your pack out of the weather and outside the tent. You will need to buy the tent footprint separately. For the price paid I think it should have come with one but a cheap HF tarp will suffice.
