Battle Mountain 3
Big Agnes
Battle Mountain 3
$899.95
Description

  The Battle Mountain is a spacious, four-season, lightweight mountaineering tent that offers full protection in the harshest of backcountry and high-alpine conditions.

  The golden yellow color of the Battle Mountain was requested by Chhiring Dorje Sherpa, a Big Agnes Ambassador and friend who has summited Mount Everest 17 times. It is meant to serve as a tribute to honor the Tibetan Buddhism goddess of prosperity and good fortune, Miyo Losangma, whose skin is golden yellow. The golden-colored fly is made of Dominico undyed polyester ripstop, and made with high-tenacity yarn to provide incredible tear strength and UV resistance that won’t fade in the harsh elements.

  With so much experience summiting 8,000+ meter peaks around the Himalaya, Chhiring’s invaluable input on the overall design, combined with his testing over the years, solidifies the Battle Mountain as one of the best mountaineering tents on the market.

Footprint sold separately.

The Grand Canyon Is One of Our Most Beloved National Parks. These Reviewers Beg to Differ.
  The Grand Canyon is stunning. At Outside, we’re in love with that giant ditch, and chances are, you are, too. This river canyon, measuring 278 miles long, roughly 10 miles wide, and in places more than a mile deep, is unlike anything else in the country. Artists paint pictures of it. Musicians write songs about it. Scientists read the history...
Outdoor Access in This Town Is Off the Charts
  There isn’t much to Davis, West Virginia (population 581). Its downtown is only a few blocks long. There’s no movie theater, no Starbucks. The entire county has one stoplight. You could feasibly drive through Davis and miss it entirely if you were engrossed in a good podcast.   Davis sits on the northern rim of Canaan Valley, a broad, high-elevation basin...
Need Reading Glasses But Don’t Want to Look Old? You’re in Luck.
  As a touring bluegrass musician, Tim Parr was passing through Malibu, California in 2017 when he decided to shop for reading glasses. At age 49, the outdoor industry veteran who’d worked at Patagonia and founded a bike company (Swobo) had never worn glasses before.

This Ski Resort Just Recorded One of the Largest In-Bounds Avalanches in Its History
  Mother Nature has provided another reminder that avalanches can occur on either side of a ski resorts boundary.   Earlier this week, patrollers at Colorados Steamboat Resort published images and video of a massive avalanche that swept down four closed runs on the morning of Wednesday, November 27. Nobody was injured in the slide, which occurred near the summit of 10,570-foot...
How Can I Make Off-Season Strength Training More Fun?
  Every Sunday afternoon I sit down in my home office prepping for next week’s clients directly in front of one of my favorite quotes:   “We don’t stop playing because we grow old; we grow old because we stop playing.”   While George Bernard Shaw has many famous expressions, the words “grow old” in this particular quote could be replaced by any...
