best tent company around. C Bar 3 is easy to set up and take down. Roomy for folks + gear. I could not be happier. I very highly recommend this company's products. Hands down, the best.

Lightweight and Affordable Backpacking Shelter
This Camping Tent is the ultimate solution for backpackers seeking a lightweight and compact tent without compromising on comfort. This three-season tent features a streamlined design, making it ideal for backcountry adventures. With a single door entry and a spacious single vestibule, this tent provides ample storage space for your gear while maintaining a small footprint for easy packing.

Durable and Weatherproof Construction
Constructed with a waterproof fly and floor made from durable recycled materials, this Tent ensures you stay dry in rainy conditions. The DAC Pressfit pole system with lightweight hub pole design makes it strong enough to withstand various weather conditions while remaining easy to carry. Its storm flaps on the vestibule zipper and TipLok Tent Buckle provide added weather resistance and stability, ensuring a reliable shelter no matter the environment.

Easy Setup and Convenient Features
Designed for efficiency, the single-pole architecture with DAC Angle Hubs ensures quick and hassle-free setup. The tent includes a Quick Stash door keeper for easy door management, multiple interior loops for attaching accessories, and an oversized ceiling pocket for organizing gear. Reflective guylines and webbing enhance visibility at night, adding safety and convenience to your camping experience.

Care Instructions

Storage
Always make sure your tent is dry and free of debris before storing. Fold and roll your tent a different way each time to avoid permanent creases. Store in a cool, dry place. Never leave your tent in hot temperatures (such as a car trunk or attic space) for long periods of time, as it will damage the material coatings. Storing your tent damp can result in mildew growth, which may cause your tent to smell, leak, or delaminate. Mildew damage is not covered under warranty.

Cleaning
For light cleaning, sponge the product with warm water (not hot).

For more thorough cleaning you will need
• Wash basin (or bath tub)-Warm water (not hot)
• Waterproof Gear Cleaner (Big Agnes recommend products like Nikwax Tech Wash)
• Sponge

• Submerge your gear in warm, clean water. Gently agitate with hands. Empty dirty water. Repeat until most of the excess dirt/grime is removed and water is mostly clear
• Apply waterproof gear specific wash and gently work into fabric with sponge
• Rinse gear thoroughly
• Hang it up to dry
• Triple check that your gear is completely dry before storage or use
• Do not dry clean or machine-wash. Detergents and dry cleaning solvents will damage the fabric and ruin waterproofing
• Never use hot water, bleach, liquid detergents, or dishwashing liquids
• Allow to dry COMPLETELY before storage or use
• Avoid prolonged direct sunlight as UV exposure can compromise waterproofing

Seam Sealing
Big Agnes tents are seam sealed as part of their manufacturing process! This seam tape alone is durable enough to prevent water leakage. Any seams that have been taped do not need to be seam sealed with a liquid sealer unless you want extra protection. Make sure the seam-sealer is completely dry before re-packing your tent. Damage caused by misapplication may void warranty.

Zippers
Keeping your zippers clean will help keep the coils and sliders from wearing out. If filled with dirt, vacuum or brush zippers before storing tent. Big Agnes recommend Gear Aid Zipper Cleaner and Lubricant.
