Our award-winning Fly Creek tents have been redesigned from the stakes up, now using solution-dyed fabric that is highly resistant to UV fade and drastically reduces energy consumption and water use during manufacturing, a process that is better for the environment and improves the quality of the tent fabric. Updated with a larger vertical door entry-arch and steep-wall architecture for more headroom, Fly Creek tents maximize your interior space so you can camp comfortably out in the backcountry. Constructed using ultralight materials with weatherproof, technical features you expect from a three-season tent. The Fly Creek is your go-to, easy-to-setup shelter for ultralight adventures.

Benefits of Solution-Dyed Fabrics


50% reduction in water required
Nearly 5 gallons of water saved per tent on some models

80% reduction in energy required
Significantly reduces carbon emissions

80% fewer chemicals used
For a cleaner and safer dyeing and finishing process

Big Agnes is the first to introduce solution-dyed tent body and fly fabrics to the equipment category.  The result is better for the environment and the high UV resistance of the solution-dyed fabrics improves the quality of our tents. Improving already great tents isn’t easy, choosing to lessen the environmental impact while doing so is.
