Copper Spur UL1 Tent

For solo backpackers who refuse to trade weight for livability, the Copper Spur UL1 is our top pick in ultralight 3-season shelters. The 4-way hubbed DAC Featherlite pole system opens up genuine headroom and shoulder space you won't find in most one-person tents. A 1200mm-rated coated fly and floor plus storm-flapped zippers handle whatever the backcountry throws at you.

• DAC Featherlite NFL 4-way hub pole system creates a high-volume interior with real headroom and shoulder room — not the cramped coffin-style fit of typical ultralight solo tents
• Double-ripstop mixed-denier nylon body resists tears and punctures without adding grams, keeping the packweight where gram-counters need it
• 1200mm polyurethane-coated fly and floor with fully taped seams sheds heavy rain reliably across three seasons — tested in the kind of afternoon downpours the Southern Appalachians are known for
• Awning-style vestibule pairs with your trekking poles to extend your covered space for gear storage or camp cooking; storm flaps on all zippers seal out wind-driven rain
• Available in Lichen Green and Tangelo — both easy to spot at a campsite and grippy enough visually to find your tent after a long day on trail
