Description
The Platinum version of the Fly Creek UL 2 is one impressively light tent. It makes even the ultra-lean Fly Creek UL look like the chubby sibling of the family. To cut weight, the Platinum uses an all-mesh body and lighter fabric for the fly. Spare as it is, it delivers 3-season coverage for you and a partner. If you're interested in going even lighter, you can leave the tent body at home, and set up with just the poles, fly, and the optional footprint. Your chocolate stash probably weighs more than this tent.
- All seams are sealed with solvent-free polyurethane tape (contains no PVC or volatile organic compounds).
- Vents on the fly improve ventilation and reduce condensation.
- Storm flap on vestibule zippers prevents drips.
- 3 mesh pockets keep your stuff organized and off the floor.
- Loops for attaching a gear loft.
- Reflective guy lines and webbing on tent corners.
- Optional footprint available.
- Includes 11 superlight aluminum J-stakes.
- Nearly free-standing design requires the 2 foot corners pegged out.
