Our Take
The Big Agnes Copper Spur UL2 is a top-tier choice because it perfectly balances a featherlight trail weight with a surprisingly spacious, high-volume interior.
We love the user-friendly features like the dual awning-style doors and massive internal storage pockets that make living in the tent for weeks a total breeze.
The new HyperBead fabric adds impressive durability and weather protection, ensuring this tent stays bone dry and reliable during tough backcountry storms.
