Bathtub too short
2 months ago
I love all of my Big Agnes tents (I have three). This one has only one problem, which I can tell. I live in the Smokies and am out in the rain a lot. The bathtub floor isn't high enough. If you don't have the tent fly staked super close in the rain, the water will hit the ground and bounce up into the tent and through the mesh, getting your gear inside wet, along with the mesh wall. The bathtub needs to be a couple of inches higher, or the fly an inch longer.
