Description

The Big Agnes Tiger Wall 3 Platinum tent is freestanding, has two doors and vestibules, and tips the scales at a minimum weight of 2 pound, 5 ounces! It's an ideal choice for ounce-counting backpackers who still value interior space.

Tapered from the head to the foot of the tent, the interior of the tent measures 66" at its widest point and stretches a full 88" in length. The 38 square feet interior provides adequate elbow room for 3 backpackers or serves as a roomy shelter for 2. Two doors provide convenient access and dual vestibules offer a combined 16 square feet of additional weather-protected external storage space. 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, Trapezoid Gear Loft, Large Trapezoid Gear Loft, Wall Gear Loft, or Large Wall Gear Loft (all sold separately).

Lightweight, collapsible DAC Featherlite NFL poles provide the tent with freestanding structure. The single hub/pole design works in conjunction with the tent body's integrated clips to make setting up the tent fast, easy and intuitive. Aluminum J stakes are included to ensure a taught pitch.

Ample mesh on the tent body maximizes cross ventilation and provides 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 tent's seams are seal-taped with waterproof, solvent-free polyurethane tape (no PVC or VOCs) to further protect the tent from the elements. The custom-fit Tiger Wall UL 3 Footprint (sold separately) is highly recommended to provide additional protection beneath the tent from mud, ground water, or sharp objects. If you really want to travel light, you can leave the tent body at home and use just the rainfly, poles, and the footprint to create a tarp-style set-up that weighs just 1 pound, 15 ounces!

  • Features two doors and two vestibules with storm flaps on the vestibule zippers

Great Backpacking Tent

Likes

We recently used on a 2 person, 4 day trip to Havasupai. Weight is amazing for the size, Love the door double zippers for quickly getting items out of the tent.

Dislikes

Footprint is a must, the tent stuff-sack is thin and tore on our first trip.

Great tent!

I used this tent for the first 140 miles of the Appalachian trail with my wife. The first night I set it up in the dark and pouring rain. It took me about 3 minutes to set up and get the fly over the tent. The tent poles and tent are color coordinated so it makes setup easy. We stayed nice and dry in the tent. At night the temperature dropped to 28 degrees and we woke up to a winter wonderland. There was about 1/2 inch of snow and ice on the tent. The tent held up nicely. This tent is extremely light, 2lbs. 8oz. on my scale with everything to set it up properly. With a lightweight tent comes with extremely delicate materials. This tent is thin. With the snow on top of the rain fly the zipper on the fly got caught in rain flap that covers the zipper. This material is so thin that the zipper ripped the fabric. It happened so easily. This makes me question the durability of this tent for the long haul. I’m not sure why they have that material there. The zipper is over the vestibule. It would’ve been nicer just to have waterproof zippers over the vestibules. The zippers on the tent body work perfectly. You definitely need the ground cover under the tent for the protection. The tents size is perfect for two adults and a little extra gear. We had some beautiful nights where we didn’t use the rain fly at all and the stars where gorgeous. I would recommend this tent if your looking for something lighter and you’re not to hard on your equipment. It does set up Buick and easy. I like the fact that it’s all most free standing. If you’re not happy with the way the tent is facing, you can pick it up and move it.

Dislikes

How easy it may rip from the zipper on the rain fly. For a thru hike durability can be an issue.

A great tent... but still new

Likes

We ordered this tent from Backcountry Edge early in the season in preparation for our thru-hike of the PCT. It's a 3 person tent, of course, but we are only two persons - for us, the value of having the additional space with a very small weight penalty vs the 2 person tent is worth it. We have camped in tents with both a smaller and larger floor areas, and we like the space. We appreciate having two vestibules and two doors. The semi-free standing set up is very easy, and it seems solid so far (have only done test set-ups so far). We are starting our hike at the end of May and will update this review after we have some real world use on the product. So far we like the relatively low weight for a complete tent with poles as well as the small packed size of the tent. Neither my partner or I hike with trekking poles, so it was silly for us to consider tents that need them to set up. I have owned and used other Big Agnes tents and they have been very good; I see no reason why this tent will not be excellent as well. The total tent weight is spot on as advertised - to the gram!!

Dislikes

The only cons so far are that the "Trail Weight" advertised weight is not accurate - there is no way of achieving this weight unless you chose to omit all of the stuff sacs (which is ok) along with all the tent pegs and the pole repair piece, and then it still comes up a touch short. The tent needs the pegs to set up properly... or you can maybe use rocks or sticks (not too practical). As with most tents, the included number of tent pegs is only adequate for the basic set up. If you want to do a more weather resistant set up using the guy lines, then you need more pegs (or more rocks, sticks etc.).
