The Big Agnes String Ridge 2 is a winning choice for people who move in the mountains year-round.

  • Easy set up, good ventilation, light weight and ample space are just a few of the amenities available on the String Ridge 2
  • Two-hub pole assembly, one crossover pole and DAC Twist clips contribute to the tent's strength and stability

  • Tent's reflective corner webbing and heavy-duty reflective guyline stand out at night in your headlamp's beam
  • DAC Featherlite® NSL poles are superlight and strong, featuring press-fit connectors and lightweight hubs
  • NSL anodization uses far less harsh acid than conventional anodization and recycles wastewater during rinsing process for less environmental impact
  • Fly and floor are made of lightweight ripstop nylon treated with silicone for durability and coated with polyurethane for waterproofness
  • Tent body is made from breathable ripstop nylon; closeable mesh vents keep air circulating inside
  • Interior mesh pockets keep gear organized
  • Use the String Ridge 2 footprint (sold separately), tent fly and poles to pitch a lightweight shelter

    Comments about Big Agnes String Ridge 2 Tent:

    I use this tent for trips where there is a possibility of snow when backpacking and climbing at higher elevations. It has a lot of headroom, yet still remains sturdy in high winds when guyed out. Another plus is that it has a lot of reflective material on the tent making it easy to find after a late night hike. The tent also ventilates well as long as the temperature is below 40 degrees. The only downside of the tent is that the floor and the fly are pretty thin to save weight so you have to be careful with it.
