Big Agnes Copper Spur HV UL 2P: Ultralight Backpacking Tent

Overview

The Big Agnes Copper Spur HV UL 2P is an ultralight, two‑person backpacking shelter designed to balance weight with livable space. Its bright orange canopy adds visibility on the trail, while the design emphasizes quick setup, efficient packing, and real-world comfort after a long day outdoors. This tent aims to be a reliable companion for hikers who want a compact shelter without compromising interior room or airflow.

Smart design for real-world trails

The high-volume pole architecture creates steeper walls, maximizing interior space without adding unnecessary bulk. A high-volume angle hub improves stability and strength, helping the tent maintain its shape in varied conditions while providing a comfortable living area inside.

Weather protection and access

Access is straightforward with one door and one vestibule. Storm flaps on the vestibule zippers help keep drafts and moisture outside, so you can choose when to enjoy the open air and when you want a drier moment inside.

Privacy meets star-gazing transparency

The two-tone mesh offers a balance of privacy and visibility, letting you enjoy stargazing while maintaining a breathable, low-stress interior climate on warm nights or breezy evenings.

Convenient features you’ll notice

Stashing an unzipped door is quick and easy with a dedicated stash feature on the tent body door, reducing fuss when you’re cooking, regrouping, or getting ready for bed.
