Fly Creek UL1

Easy-pitching ultralight tent

A lot of ultralight tents have a reputation for being fiddly to pitch, requiring careful tensioning and adjustment. But going lightweight shouldnt also mean getting super technical let your gear do that for you. Thats why we love the Fly Creek, which pitches in minutes thanks to its single-pole architecture, along with colour-coded webbing and buckles, makes setting up the tent quick and simple, even in challenging conditions.

Updated for 2025 using Big Agnes’ own proprietary HyperBead technology that is 6% lighter, 25% more waterproof, and 50% stronger than traditional coatings, providing superior protection and stability. Constructed using ultralight but eco-friendly materials with all the weatherproof, technical features you expect from a three-season tent. This is your go-to, easy-to-pitch companion for ultralight adventures.
