If bivy sacks make you claustrophobic and you like the idea of having a vestibule, then take along the Big Agnes Emerald Mountain SL Solo Tent when you backpack. This lightweight tent gives you plenty of room to move around as well as a spot to stash your pack and muddy boots during a downpour. When the sun comes out, pull off the Emerald Solo's rain fly and enjoy the breeze without the bugs through the mesh walls and door. The hub-and-pole design makes setup easy, and the DAC Featherlite poles combine durability and a low weight. Plus, DAC made these poles for Big Agnes with an eco-friendly process that eliminates the need for two toxic chemicals and recycles wastewater.

good ultralight 1 human tent...

Anonymous at Backcountry.com on 11/18/2008
Rated: ****
i have used this tent twice so far, both on two day backpacking trips in cold but mostly dry weather. WEIGHT: it is THE lightest weight one human tent that i have found. SPACE: i am 5' 1" and fit in this tent with my 3,000 cubic inch pack & my beagle, and had just a little space to spare. PACKED SIZE: good size to be able to fit inside or outside a pack. WATER TEST: didn't get the chance to test it in the rain... just a few sprinkles, so can't say if it keeps the H2O out. DOORS: the tent entry is big and its a side door instead of a front door BUT when unzipped, it sits on the floor instead of to the side, so you end up stepping on it. VESTIBULE SPACE: there are several inches between the vestibule and the ground, enough space for rain to get in if coming down at an angle, so i wouldn't trust putting stuff right up against the vestibule wall. OTHER: they make a footprint for this tent. OVERALL: good tent for what's out there now in the ultralight one person tent category.

Pleased.

I recently purchased this tent because I was sick of carrying around TNF's heavy Rock 22. My choices were The Big Agnes Emerald Mountain, the BA Seedhouse, the MSR Hubba, or the Hilleberg Akto (which is 4 season but very expensive). I went for the Emerald Mountain for the weight, space, and price. I actually picked it up for $170 so it was a no brainer... This tent is roomy for 1 person and I was able to sleep next to my gear and pack and have ample room the only complaint is that the door sits on the floor when it's completely unzipped, but that's a minor issue as I never keep the door open for any reason. Oh ya, then there's that issue with the 8 stakes it takes to set up the tent and fly. Water! While in Yosemite, we had a bit of a storm and I woke up with my tent in a 2 inch puddle of water. Was I wet? No Way! It was fantastic. The tent floor basically acted like a cold waterbed and nothing leaked at all. Vents were open so condensation was little to none and my pack and all my gear remained dry. Also the vestible was very roomy for my pack, shoes, and poles, but I decided to bring them in just in case of muddy ground. Glad I did! This tent stuffs down pretty well too. Lightweight and quick to set up, it's a great tent for ultralight backpacking and I can't wait to test it in snow and a more hairy storm.
