The lightest and strongest double-wall tent from Black Diamond, Mirage 2 brings performance weight together with weather-resistant materials.

  • Steep tent walls increase floor space and add an airy feel to the interior; spacious 10 sq. ft. single vestibule shelters gear
  • Pole bundle features a hub-wrapped, variable-diameter pole system, integrating the entire frame into one easy-setup system
  • Hubbed system eliminates the need to sort out poles for setup; hook-and-tension external pole clips easily attach canopy to poles
  • Variable pole diameter creates a strong tent with high interior volume; DAC Featherlite® NSL poles use an eco-friendly anodizing process
  • Polyester rainfly sheds water with a silicon and polyurethane coating, stays taut in rainy and humid conditions, and resists UV degradation
  • Seam-taped, waterproof bathtub-style floor keeps floor-edge seams off the ground
  • Combination mesh and ripstop nylon canopy provides ventilation while blocking wind-born dirt and snow
  • Adjustable rainfly vent at the top of the tent and fixed foot vent down low creates a chimney effect to prevent interior condensation
  • Rip-and-stick attachments on rainfly underside allow it to be fastened to pole framework for extra strength and stability
  • Interior mesh pockets hold odds and ends; hanger loops allow attachment of an attic, not included
  • Ultralight stake loops and reflective guyout points help you increase the structural integrity of the tent in adverse weather
  • Poles and rainfly can be set up with the footprint, (sold separately) to create a lightweight shelter
  • Comes with stakes, reflective guylines and stuff sacks
  • Average minimum weight specification is based on tent, rainfly and poles only

Please note: Black Diamond products can only be shipped to the U.S., Canada and Mexico.

Imported.

      Comments about Black Diamond Mirage 2 Tent:

      Don't be afraid to order the Mirage 2 online, because it is everything the REI Quarter Dome isn't. I had the latter with 3 major issues-First, the fly and tent did not keep out rain on 2 different trips, which was funny the first trip and frustrating the second. Second, in windy conditions, the tent blew all over the place (unsturdy frame) as well as letting sand blow in (see issue #1). All of my stuff had grime all over it in the morning. Third, I'm 6'0 and it was tight for two both length- and width-wise.
      The Mirage 2 is cavernous in comparison and only 3 more ounces. The fly worked flawlessly, and I now totally believe the other review about the hurricane (which I thought was made up to impress), because in high winds and rain the tent was immobile, and I slept very well (and dry). I, too, got the tent when it was on sale. And for the money you get a lot more room/quality in a tent than the T2.

        Comments about Black Diamond Mirage 2 Tent:

        Camping through Hurricane Ike was a thrill. I live an hour north of Austin. The strong winds and rain did nothing to phase this tent. It stayed completely dry and secure in 50 mile an hr plus winds and downpours. This tent is light weight easy to setup and take down within minutes. At last months price [$]this tent was a absolute steal!

        Comments about Black Diamond Mirage 2 Tent:

        This tent is easy to set up and really comfortable, although I've only slept in it by myself. I'm not sure how comfortable it would be with two people! I especially like the extra vestibule space the fly provides. It's a good way to keep your shoes free of condensation through the night.
