The C Bart tent is perfect for people who want to upgrade their camping setup and don't want to break the bank. It is a strong and robust tent, made from slightly heavier material, that you can trust will shelter you in bad weather.
Big Agnes says:
Get into the backcountry with a lightweight shelter option designed to provide plenty of room without extra bulk.
Streamlined architecture, with a single head entry door, combined with ample gear storage in the attached vestibule and interior mesh pockets means you don't have to sacrifice efficiency for comfort and convenience. A waterproof fly and floor made from durable recycled fabric will keep you dry when the skies turn grey.
Looking for a high quality, technical tent without breaking the bank? You're looking for a C Bar.
