triscuit's Review of Big Agnes Fly Creek 2 Platinum Tent - 2 Person, 3 Season

Used this tent for the entire PCT. Its pros are that its light, easy to setup, has great visibility when just using the inner net alone. I really enjoyed this as most nights on the PCT were clear weather but had mosquitoes so it was cool to lay inside for bug protection while watching the stars. The major downfall is the durability. The material is so thin a strong groundsheet is basically required. The seam around the door also began to fail causing it it rip more and more every time I opened the door. I tried to patch it anyway I could, but the way its designed puts a lot of pressure on the fabric when closing/opening the door. This makes it near impossible to patch up that area of the tent. Adding the weight of a groundsheet and this tents high price make me think there were better options I should have considered. Keep in mind Big Agnes charges to repair there gear as well.
