Big Agnes Copper Spur UL2 XL Tent: Review
I purchased this lightweight tent for a backpacking trip in Colorado at the Flat Peaks Wilderness area. I put the footprint down and assembled the tent. When I went inside to examine the tent there was a hole in the floor and the side of the tent. Strong wind came later in the day and the tent was filled with dirt. I will be returning the tent. I do not recommend this tent.
