Reviews & Awards
  • "Black Diamond Firstlight Tent. Editors' Choice Award (4/04)" - Backpacker Magazine
  • "Packs up about as small as a cantaloupe (without poles) and is lighter than many bivy sacks on the market...The Firstlight's Bibler I-Tent design is expedition tried and true, and you climb inside and pitch it during a storm." - Climbing Magazine
Description

A compact two-person, four-season tent built for weight-conscious climbers, the Black Diamond First Light is based on the I-Tent’s expedition-specific design with steep walls and a simple floor shape to optimize living space and increase headroom.

For durability, all seams are double sewn and the stress points are reinforced. With two equal length DAC Featherlite poles that fit inside the tent with hook-and-loop wraps, it’s easy to set up—even from inside.

For cross ventilation, both the small rear window and the door are covered with no-see-um mesh. The canopy is contructed with water resistant, breathable Epic fabric. For interior organization, the Firstlight has two interior net pockets.

Black Diamond FirstLight tent is now made with NanoShield fabric, a new proprietary breathable single-layer fabric. NanoShield is extremely water resistant: it has the highest water column rating of any breathable single-layer, single-wall fabric at 1700mm. Such as outstanding rating is the result of BD's exclusive Silicone Nanocell coating. This coating has a much lower volume than typical water-resistant coatings, allowing the fabric to remain superlight, soft and packable.

Despite its thin profile, Silicone Nanocell is highly durable with impressive tear strength, making it perfect for high winds and abrasion resistance when guying-out to nearby rocks, ice or trees. It loses nothing in breathability to less weatherproof fabrics, boasting a Moisture Vapor Transmission Rate (MVTR) of 4300.

OPTIONAL VESTIBULE NOT INCLUDED.
