The Copper Spur Platinum 2 is another quality, Big Agnes tent. It is great for a long section hike, especially if you like a light weight tent that will keep you dry, an offers plenty of room for one person.
I’ve tried every expensive, “breathable” rain jacket on the market. When hiking hard, I sweat in them all. I’ve decided to try the reasonably priced, silnylon, Light Heart jacket this time.
On my next hike I’ve decided to trade off a little weight for convenience. I’ve decided to use a new free standing, double walled tent. I’ve used Big Agnes tents in the past, and impressed wih the weight, I decided to go with them again.
The final 5 miles to Tennessee Pass were beautiful, but slow, as I stopped every half mile to take a break.

I spent some time debating between the ATR 5 and the Speedgoat, but ultimately went with the ATR 5 due to comfort, and larger toe box. The Speedgoat was a little too narrow for my foot, and the impact was a little stiffer, more like a running shoe.
Every 20 mile hike should have a gourmet burger at the end.
