The Big Agnes Fly Creek HV UL 2 has a modified architecture that creates greater internal space while still boasting a trail weight of just 2 pounds!

Description

Bringing an extra measure of livability to the freestanding, award-winning design of the Fly Creek tent, the Big Agnes Fly Creek HV UL 2 has a modified architecture that creates greater internal space while still boasting a trail weight of just 2 pounds!

Tapered from the head to the foot of the tent, the interior of the Fly Creek HV UL 2 measures 52" at its widest point and stretches a full 86" in length. The 28 square feet of interior space provides ample room for 2 backpackers or serves as a roomy shelter for one. An integrated vestibule offers 7 square feet of additional weather-protected external storage space. High Volume pole architecture increases the verticality of the sidewalls and the door so that there is more elbow room and livable space inside the tent. Three interior mesh pockets provide places to stash gear and clothes while integrated gear loft loops offer a connection point for the Big Agnes Triangle Gear Loft (sold separately).

Ample mesh on the tent body and a large mesh door maximize cross ventilation and provide circulation to fight condensation build-up. Coated with 1200mm waterproof polyurethane, the silicone-treated rip-stop nylon floor and rainfly are lightweight and durable. All of the Fly Creek HV UL 2's seams are sealed with waterproof, solvent-free polyurethane tape (no PVC or VOCs) to further protect the tent from the elements.

Lightweight, collapsible DAC Featherlite NFL pre-bent poles provide the tent with freestanding structure. The single hub/pole design works in conjunction with the tent body's integrated clips to make setup fast, easy and intuitive.

If you really want to travel light, leave the tent body at home and use the rainfly alone with the optional Fly Creek HV UL 2 Footprint (sold separately) for a tarp-style set-up that weighs a mere 1 pound, 7 ounces!

Vestibule too small for my needs

Likes

Light, Well-made Like all Big Agnes tents (I’ve had and use for the last 5 years a Copper Spur UL2), the Fly Creek UL2 HV is a well-made and complete tent package. It is just not the right tent for my needs as I plan a 2020 AT thru-hike. I am looking to cut my tent weight in half, which the Fly Creek almost does.

Dislikes

Vestibule design, Body-first setup I need vestibule space for my pre-dawn morning coffee, and the tight slope does not give me the vertical space. It rains a lot during hiking season on the AT, so I was looking for a tent that I could quickly setup dry in the rain as well as cook in the vestibule. I went with the out-of-the-box design of the Sierra Designs High Route 1.
