1. Good UL Tent but not really a 2 man tent.
The Big Agnes Fly Creek UL2 has some excellent points: it's lighter in weight and more packable then some single person tents out there, it's easy to pitch, and it's a stable design. I see it becoming my go-to tent out of the four tents I own for most of my upcoming backpacking trips. I purchased it so that I would have a tent large enough to take my dog with me on camping trips, and it actually weighs less than the single person tent I've been using and is also more packable.

I purchased my BA Fly Creek II from HumbleOutdoors for about $270, it came with a free BA footprint.
