The Fly Creek 2 HV UL Solution Dye has one door and a maximum center height of 3' 6, which is a little bit smaller than the average height of the 238 different 2 person tents we have examined With 28 square feet of space inside, it is a lot smaller than some other 2-person tents, and it would be quite cramped for you and, another camper throughout the 3-seasons, this tent is approved for use in, smaller tents similar to this one often can make a nice choice for campers who appreciate spending plenty of time outside of the tent enjoying the fresh air.

Many of the cool points about dome tents are, that they are for, the most part lightweight, making them easy to carry. In most all instances, tents used for backpacking are of the dome type. They are generally speaking, freestanding and very simple to set up. In calm weather, you can do without securing the tent with stakes and ropes, not that this is suggested.

Dome tents are the most commonly seen of all the various sorts of tents you will find when camping. They tend to fair better in storms than other types, allowing water to roll off the slanted walls, unlike cabin tents that have flat tops, resulting in the water pooling on the top. The most basic dome tent should have a square footprint, sloped walls two or more poles which converge in the middle of the roof. Because of the way they are made, it is usually thought of that they are best suited for up to a maximum of 6 campers.

2. Vestibule. Having one vestibule. Gives you a place to store shoes and other things that can get dirty, muddy, this is a huge plus.
3. Internal storage. It is nice to see Big Agnes has added a gear loft and pockets in the interior to store some of your stuff.
4. Breathable. The Fly Creek's interior uses a mesh fabric on the inside of the tent, and this helps maximize the flow of air. With the extra ventilation, and this tent is great for use in the warmer months.
5. The rainfly completely covers the tent body. The rainfly covers the entire body of the tent from the top to the bottom and has a waterproof rating of 1200mm. Meaning it will easily protect you against heavy downpours.

CONS

1. Not spacious. With a floor area of 28 square feet, the Fly Creek 2 is smaller than quite a lot of the 249 other 2 person tents we have looked at.
2. Lacking in Headroom. With 7% less headroom than similar sized tents, one can see how this could be a negative thing for some people.
3. Footprint not Included. There is no included footprint, The floor may be made of Nylon rip-stop but it is still best to protect it further with a footprint, especially on rough terrain.
4. Out of Stock. Unfortunately this particular tent is not currently in stock. It is still on the manufactures website the last time we looked.
5. Sloping walls. Even though Dome tents have heaps of things to be positive about. The sloping walls do tend to make it all the more smaller inside.
