Big Agnes String Ridge VST Tent: 1.5-Person 3-Season Asphalt/Mint Leaf, One Size

"What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:""I took the String Ridge VST 1. 5 on a weeklong trip through the Wind River Range, and it was everything I wanted in an ultralight trekking pole tent—roomy for one with extra gear, totally stable in high winds, and packed down small. I appreciated the dry entry and how easy the asymmetrical pitch made setup in tight alpine spaces.""We’re all about shedding weight, but not at the cost of performance—and the Big Agnes String Ridge VST 1. 5-Person Tent proves we don’t have to compromise. Born from the pursuit of fast-and-light travel, this shelter gives us the stats we crave with the security we trust. It’s perfect for solo missions into high country where every ounce counts, but reliability and rest still matter. Crafted with Big Agnes’s proprietary HyperBead™ fabric, this tent balances structure, durability, and weight like few others. Its externally supported asymmetric design maximizes interior volume while keeping weight impressively low. Hybrid single/double wall construction, integrated venting, and a protective vestibule give us everything we need in unpredictable conditions. Designed to pair with trekking poles, it’s the shelter we grab when speed, space, and security all matter."
