User Review: Black Diamond Firstlight
|
Rating: 
Design: three-season freestanding
Sleeps: 2
Ease of Setup: easy
Weight: 3 pounds
A little gem: best 2-person, 3-season tent I've owned in 35 years of backpacking. Single-walled (no fly) but for me it weathered a howling rainstorm in the Rockies, completely dry. Water puddled under the floor but would not seep through; no need for a footprint. (You must seam-seal it yourself before 1st use.)
Careful how you pitch it re: high winds because its steep sides catch (and gave way considerably) against gusts; the written instructions warn about this. No internal flames; it's not fire-retardant. Wonderful headroom, great space, and it weighs less than 3 lbs -- how can you beat that?
