Description
This footprint matches both the Big Agnes Blacktail 2 and the Blacktail Hotel, so the same accessory works for either tent. Underneath the tent it protects the floor from ground abrasion, and it also enables a lightweight Fast Fly setup that leaves the inner tent body at home.
Covering two tent sizes with one footprint is convenient if you're deciding between the Blacktail 2 and the Hotel, or own both. The usual Fast Fly caveat applies: without the inner body there's no bug mesh and less shelter from wind-blown rain, so save that pitch style for settled, dry, low-bug conditions rather than relying on it in bad weather.
