Question about tent footprint sizing
I spent a whole afternoon in my backyard trying to get a generic footprint to fit my Big Agnes Copper Spur HV UL2. The problem was the corners, they just would not line up right. It took me about 3 hours of moving it around before I gave up and ordered the exact one from the brand. Has anyone else had this much trouble with a third party footprint?

So you spent three hours fighting with a tarp in your backyard? Sounds like the tent was just holding out for the brand-name ransom money.

Ugh, that sounds so familiar. I tried the same thing with my old tent, cutting a cheap tarp to size. I mean, it seemed fine until a windy night when it shifted and pooled water right under my sleeping pad. Ended up with a wet spot. After that, I just bit the bullet and got the real footprint. It clips right in, no fuss. Sometimes the generic stuff just isn't worth the headache.
