Big Agnes Copper Spur

Yes, the Copper Spur uses a hubbed pole system that allows it to stand on its own without needing stakes. While you will still want to stake it out to maximize interior volume and secure the vestibules, it is easy to set up on rock slabs or platforms where staking is difficult.

No, the footprint is not included with the tent. We recommend purchasing one separately to extend the life of your tent floor and keep it clean, especially if you frequently camp on abrasive or muddy ground.

With 29 square feet of floor space and a peak height of 40 inches, it is quite spacious for an ultralight tent. It comfortably fits two standard sleeping pads side-by-side, and the dual-door, dual-vestibule design ensures that neither person has to climb over the other to get out.

No, this is a 3-season tent designed for spring, summer, and fall. The full mesh body offers excellent ventilation in warm weather, but it does not provide the wind resistance or heat retention required for winter mountaineering or heavy snow loads.

The full mesh body is excellent for airflow, which is the most effective way to prevent condensation buildup inside the tent. By allowing moisture to escape easily, it keeps the interior feeling dry and comfortable even on humid nights.

With a packed length of 17 inches, it is compact enough to fit horizontally inside most backpacking packs or strapped to the outside. It is designed specifically for weight-conscious hikers who need to keep their kit streamlined.
