Mountain Gear

Get the weather-resistant protection you need to manage 3 seasons with the Gore Pass 2 tent from Big Agnes. With enough room for yourself and your hiking partner and plenty of room in the dual vestibules for Rover, the Gore Pass keeps you dry and protected with a polyurethane-coated floor and fly with an almost completely mesh upper to promote ventilation throughout the night. This product was selected for the Outside Magazine 2009 Buyer's Guide.

Features:

  • Don't worry about tripping over your tent and stakes in the dark, reflective guyline and reflective webbing at tent corners enhance nighttime visibility
  • Easily set up the anodized DAC aluminum poles that provide durability without costing you in weight; attach the canopy via the DAC Twist Clips
  • Enter through the D-shaped vestibule door, or unzip the vertical zips beneath the other vestibule and use a pair of trekking poles to stake out the flaps for shade and an easy entryway
  • Never wake up feeling soggy during the night because of condensation - a breathable polyester and nylon mesh tent canopy provides ample opportunity for increased circulation
  • Stash extra gear or your night's reading material in the 4 included mesh pockets or make use of the gear loft loops
  • Stay dry and comfortable throughout the night with the help of a tough, yet lightweight polyester ripstop floor and fly; both are coated a waterproof polyurethane coating and complete seam taping
  • Storms don't get in past the storm flaps over the dual vestibule zippers

Bring along the Big Agnes Gore Pass 2 Tent on your next backpacking trip and have a spacious place to crash after a long day of trekking. This lightweight, two-person tent features a hubbed-pole design and a lightweight polyester ripstop construction for a solid blend of living space and light weight. Two large vestibules hold all of your gear when a storm rolls in, and the front vestibule turns into a shaded porch with the help of two trekking poles. The mesh walls and ceiling provide ample ventilation, and interior mesh pockets store your headlamps and small essentials. When you’re going super light, the rain fly and poles work with the footprint (sold separately) to make a streamlined storm shelter.
