Product Highlights
New for 2008! The innovative Big Agnes Emerald Mountain SL1 weighs a mere 3 lb. 4 oz., but offers a surprisingly livable space for such a lightweight solo tent. A unique pole configuration and a sizable vestibule combine to make the Emerald Mountain SL1 extremely livable.
Slightly tapered from the head to the foot of the tent, the interior of the Emerald Mountain SL1 measures 42" at its widest point and stretches a full 90" in length. The 22 sq. ft. of interior space provides ample elbow room and the vestibule offers 10 sq. ft. of additional weather-protected external storage space. The Big Agnes Emerald Mountain SL1 Accessory Vestibule (sold separately) can be attached to the Emerald Mountain SL1, increasing the total vestibule area to an impressive 27 sq. ft.! Two sewn-in mesh floor pockets provide a dedicated place to stash clothes and gear, enhancing the livability of the Emerald Mountain SL1. Integrated gear loft loops offer a connection point for the Big Agnes Emerald Mountain Gear Loft (sold separately).
With the exception of the reinforced floor, the entire tent body and the large D-shaped door are made of mesh, maximizing cross ventilation and providing circulation to fight condensation build-up. Coated with waterproof polyurethane, the rip-stop nylon floor and rainfly are lightweight and durable. All of the Emerald Mountain SL1's seams are tape-sealed to further protect the tent from the elements.
Lightweight, collapsible DAC Featherlite NSL poles provide the Emerald Mountain SL1 with freestanding structure. The single hub/pole design works in conjunction with the tent body's integrated DAC Twist Clips to make setting up the Emerald Mountain SL1 fast, easy and intuitive. A unique 3/4-length section of pole cuts back across the roof the Emerald Mountain SL1, pulling the tent body taut, increasing the verticality of the interior walls of the tent and helping to create an internal awning for the larger of the two vestibules. An Eco-friendly anodizing process is used by DAC to treat the poles without the toxic chemicals traditionally used on aluminum tent poles.
The Big Agnes Emerald Mountain SL1 includes super-light x-peg stakes and a stuff sack that features an external mesh pocket to secure the tent pole bag and protect the tent body and rainfly from damage.
