Big Agnes C Bar 3 Tent: 3-Person 3-Season

When we’re getting away from the city’s hum and seeking a recharge in nature, the C Bar 3 Tent from Big Agnes is our sturdy palace of choice. This budget-friendly tent isn’t the lightest option out there, but its polyester taffeta construction gives us the durability we need for frequent weekend trips—and it’s light enough for the occasional backpacker, too. The DAC Angle hubs and a cross pole on top give us some elbow room, while the single door cuts down weight and adds a small vestibule to store our boots and wet gear just outside the tent.
