Big Agnes Tiger Wall UL2 Footprint
This Tiger Wall UL2 Footprint is the easiest way to significantly extend the lifespan of your technical backcountry shelter. Specifically cut for the tapered dimensions of your tent, this ground cloth shields the floor fabric from unpredictable wilderness terrain without adding noticeable weight to your pack.
Constructed from 30D nylon ripstop, this ground cloth features Big Agnes’s proprietary HyperBead fabric technology alongside a 1,500mm waterproof silicone and polyurethane coating. It forms a reliable barrier against rising ground moisture, damp soil, and sharp pine needles, keeping the bottom of your tent clean and dry.
For fast-and-light weekend trips where bugs aren’t an issue, this ground cloth opens up a minimalist shelter option. By pinning the footprint directly to the tent fly, poles, and stakes, you can leave the main tent body at home and pitch a streamlined, weather-resistant Fast Fly tarp shelter that cuts your trail weight in half.
On-The-Trail Review
I use this ultralight Tiger Wall UL2 Footprint every single time I pitch my tent, and it definitely helps protect the thin floor material from getting chewed up by rough ground. It is custom-cut to match the exact tapered dimensions of the living space, which means it only covers the tent floor itself. If you’re looking for a footprint that extends out to act as a clean mat for the dirt inside your vestibule area, this isn’t it, but for pure floor protection and peace of mind on rocky pads, it works perfectly.
