Black Diamond Mesa 2-Person, 3-Season Backpacking Tent

Product Highlights

Pronounced a Killer Value by the editors of Outside Magazine, the Black Diamond Mesa two-person tent offers an excellent weight-to-space ratio. Suitable for three-season backpacking in varied conditions, the Mesa provides a combination of ventilation and weather protection while offering the versatility of multiple configurations depending on conditions.

The freestanding Mesa offers 36.25 square feet of internal capacity and a peak height of 44 inches. Livability is enhanced by Black Diamond's hub-warped pole construction. This design increases the verticality of the walls, strengthening the tent and maximizing the usable space found inside the Mesa. Variable diameter poles are utilized so that the framework of the tent has strength where it's needed most, but the overall weight of the tent is kept to a minimum. Integrated, fast-connecting clips make it quick and easy to attach the Mesa's tent body to the poles.

For a two-person backpacking tent, the Mesa is full of features. Dual doors on either side of the tent body provide access options. Vestibules at each door offer protection from the elements and external storage for dirty boots, packs and gear. Interior organizer pockets allow you to get clothes and gear off of the floor, further enabling you to devote floor space to stretching out for a good night's sleep.

Fully seam-taped, the Polyurethane/Silicon rainfly offers confident protection against storms and wet weather. A polyurethane coating ensures that the interior of the Mesa's floor stays dry. An optional footprint (sold separately) adds further protection against ground water, roots and rocks. For light and fast summer backpacking, you can even leave the tent body at home and attach the rainfly directly to the footprint. This stripped down configuration maximizes breathability and dramatically cuts the packed weight of the tent.
