## Description

Big AgnesGuard Station Mountaineering Tent

## Features

- Polyester
- This is basecamp—Big Agnes style! Our Guard Station is a dome-style mountaineering expedition dream shelter. There are so many details and features that set this tent apart from others, but the most important are what make it burly enough to withstand extreme high-altitude, high-alpine conditions including a polyester rip-stop material developed to provide high UV resistance and stability.
- BASECAMP SHELTER - Mountaineers, climbers and summit-seekers -this one’s for you! Our Guard Station mountaineering dome brings durable, basecamp-ready design and materials to high-altitude expeditions. House the entire crew, use as a medical tent, mess hall or command center. The dome shape minimizes snow and wind load; the DAC exoskeleton pole system maximizes architectural strength and creates extensive livable space.
- WE GOT YOU COVERED – Fly is Dominico undyed polyester rip-stop made with high tenacity yarns which increase tear strength by 20-25% over standard nylon or polyester rip-stop fabrics. Also provides high UV resistance and stability during temperature and moisture fluctuations, allowing for a solid and stable pitched tent. Fly material uses a unique pigment-dye coloring process that resists fading and increases UV resistance.
- FULL FEATURED – Peek at the peak through one of six windows without opening doors. Windows can be opened for venting or closed up tight in extreme weather; also features two ceiling vents for air flow. The single-wall structure minimizes bad-weather impact during set up. An Accessory Body is available that creates a separate living and sleeping space that takes up half the area of the shelter - sold separately.
- READY TO PITCH with pre-cut guy lines and tensioners. Heavy duty reflective guy lines and webbing on tent corners make your tent easily visible. All seams taped with waterproof, solvent-free polyurethane tape (No PVC or VOC's). Trail weight is 18 lb. 7 oz. and packs down to 10 x 15 x 24 inches. Carry bag with backpack straps included

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Expedition tent big enough for home base
*by T***R on May 23, 2025*

I didn't purchase this tent, but I did assist in setting it up in a yard. Without reading the instructions, it went up quickly and easily with only one point of confusion. Thus, I consider this to be a pretty straightforward tent to put up. We had 2 people which was helpful, but I think that it would have gone up with only one person had we started with the perimeter poles.Expanding on the point of confusion: there are 3 different sizes of poles in this tent. 2 identical black poles that are very long. 4 identical black poles that are off medium length. 2 identical black poles that are short and of smaller diameter. The two shortest poles are easily distinguished from the others. It would be nice if the other two types of poles were easily distinguished (by color) from each other.Recommendation: identify 4 medium length pole and slide them through the perimeter tent sleeves. Identify the two longest poles (if it were my tent, I'd mark them with paint or fingernail polish) and install them in the sleeves that cross perpendicularly across the top center of the tent (I would also mark the opening of these sleeves with the same color of fingernail polish). Then I'd install the medium length perimeter poles into their grommets before the longest poles. Tada!Note that the floor is detached and is attached to the tent body via plastic clips. Thus it is not designed to keep the critters, sand, or water completely out of the tent. They seem an accessory tent that is installed inside of this one that would be self contained.
