What is the Gold Camp 3 Tarp?
The Gold Camp 3 Tarp is a versatile tent that you can use alone for lightweight adventures or pair up with the mesh inner (sold separately) when you want the entire set-up to escape pesky insects. It's ideal for travelling and backpacking in groups.
What is it made of?
Tarp: The sheet comprises 75D polyester taffeta, which is incredibly lightweight yet durable enough to withstand a beating from regular use in rugged terrain. It has a 1500mm polyurethane coating, making it completely waterproof, maximising protection in harsher conditions.
Pole: The pole is made with a light yet robust 6061 aluminium. It offers reliable support for your tent in all weather and has an adjustable height, allowing you to customise the set-up of your tent easily.
What are its features?
Entry: The Gold Camp 3 Tarp has a single-door configuration with a storm flap to help prevent bad weather from seeping in. When you want to leave it open, if you're chilling out in camp or embracing the morning sun, you can toggle the door onto the tent body to stop it from flapping around in the breeze.
Space: A square-shaped base optimises sitting/sleeping room for three people. You could even use it for two if you're seeking a little extra space in between for keeping your backpacks and belongings nearby.
Storage: An interior loop system makes this tent compatible with the Big Agnes Gear Lofts if you want to keep your essentials organised for multi-day camps. You could also attach mtnGLO lights for extra visibility at night and other accessories (sold separately).
Ventilation: Low vent technology on the door increases ventilation and airflow in warmer or more humid environments. There's also one supported upper vent with a mesh lining to help manage moisture and reduce condensation build-up as you catch those all-important z's.
Guys, attachments and pegs: The structure can be supported in two different ways, using the included centre pole, as previously mentioned, or by suspending it with the exterior peak loop. Adjustable stake-out loops make set-up simple. Reflective mid-body guy-out points keep the structure taught and stable while increasing visibility in poor or dark conditions to help stop you from tripping over them if you have to nip out for a midnight wee.
Optional extras: We always recommend investing in a tent footprint to help prolong the life of your tent and reduce wear and tear from regular use. The Gold Camp 3 Tarp Footprint is sold separately and is not included with this product.
Additionally, suppose you want some added protection from pesky mozzies and no-see-um's. In that case, the Gold Camp 3 Mesh Inner can be purchased separately, ideal for hotter conditions and bug-infested climates.
As mentioned, for extra storage and organisation, you can add a Big Agnes Gear Loft to your set-up (also sold separately); the Gold Camp 3 is compatible with Big Agnes' Triangle Gear Loft model.
