Backpacker Magazine, April '04 issue says, ''The best of the bunch for riding out bad weather in style is the Lighthouse.''

  • Black Diamond Lighthouse tent focuses on lightness and versatility; it's ideal for those wanting to save weight, but not at the expense of quality
  • Lighthouse boasts enough floor space to sleep two climbers quite comfortably
  • The canopy is Epic™ fabric, which is more water resistant than Durable Water Repellent fabrics and more breathable than laminates
  • Breathable and water repellent, Epic™ fabric is ideal for single-wall tents
  • Silicone-impregnated nylon ripstop floor is twice as strong as polyurethane-coated nylon and is self-healing in nature and highly rip/tear resistant
  • DAC Featherlite® poles have a high strength-to-weight ratio, slide in/out of sleeves easily and use extrusions, not inserts, minimizing breakage
  • Two-and-a-half-pole design incorporates a full-size side door for an open-air feeling; full mesh allows air to circulate during nice weather
  • Ceiling tops out at 45 inches, providing ample headroom
  • Walls are steep and floor shape is simple, thus optimizing living space, eliminating wasted space and increasing headroom
  • Internal skin-tight poles make the tent quiet in heavy winds
  • Door zippers remain velvety smooth and resist wind; they're treated with silicone to prevent water absorption and freezing
  • Two interior net pockets hold odds and ends; tie-down points have reflective tape for easy location in the dark
  • Comes with stakes, guylines, stuff sacks, instruction/care cards, pole information card and Silnet seam sealer/applicator
  • Average minimum weight specification is based on tent and poles only
  • Please note: packed size does not include tent poles; poles break down to approximately 15.5"
  • Add on the optional vestibule (sold separately) to keep gear protected

Please note: Black Diamond products can only be shipped to the U.S., Canada and Mexico. However, due to a lack of fire-retardant treatment, we can not ship this particular tent to addresses in MA, NY, NJ, LA, MI, MN, CA or Canada.

In order to save weight and preserve breathability, this tent is not treated with a fire retardant. Black Diamond, therefore, encourages the use of basic safety precautions and common sense when using any tent, treated or not.
