Description
This is the tent-specific footprint cut to match the Big Agnes Salt Creek SL2, made from polyester taffeta with a 1500 mm PU coating — the same waterproof rating as the tent's own floor. Its job is straightforward: it sits under the tent to absorb abrasion from rocks, roots, and grit that would otherwise wear directly on the tent floor over repeated trips.
Because it's cut to the tent's exact footprint, it also enables Fast Fly mode: pitching just the fly, poles, and this footprint without the mesh inner body, which cuts significant weight and bulk for trips where full bug protection isn't needed. In that configuration, combined weight comes to 1330 g. On its own the footprint weighs 198 g and packs down to a compact 23 × 15 cm.
It's a sensible add-on rather than a standalone purchase — worthwhile for anyone who wants to extend the tent floor's lifespan or occasionally strip down to a lighter fast-and-light setup, but it only fits the Salt Creek SL2 it's designed for.
