[I like the big Agnes fly creek](https://www.outlandusa.com/p/big-agnes-fly-creek-hv-ul2-solution-dye-graygreige-2-person) but it's very cramped for 2 people. I'd say you both need to be on the smaller side, but definitely completely sealed and free standing (it's awkward if you can't peg it, but it ultimately stands.)

Seconded, have used this alone and also shared it. Reasonable to carry solo and doable shared!

I am using a Big Gnes Fly Creek 2, and it's fine for me and my wife. Was in a rain last summer on and off for several hours and stated dry as a bone. I think it's right at 1 kg trail ready, maybe slightly less. Easy setup and takedown.

I'm 6'3" 210lbs and my wife is 5'3" and similarly proportioned. We've use a Flycreek UL2 for more than a decade. It is fine for us for weekend trips where we are going to be moving regardless if weather. I don't want to do more than sleep in it. My current over-40 and several-previous-surgeries body would like a bit more headroom and a side door or two rather than the end loading design. I use a hammock for solo camping.

Funny you should mention the Fly Creek to trekking pole tent progression as I did exactly that. Still have my beat Fly Creek 2 around to lend out to friends- it served me well but now a days I’m either driving up to the site or walking in with trekking poles I may as well use for my shelter. I do think the Fly Creek is good - especially used. The title was a bit sensational.

I carried a 2person fly creek, it was awesome. Still very light, had a smaller footprint than most single wall trekking pole tents. Being able to sleep with all your gear in the tent was a bonus. Not waking up to water running down the inside of my tent every morning is also nice when you don’t want to stop to dry it out. Finally I got lucky and ended up hiking the last 3/4 of the PCT with a girl I met on trail…. The extra room as nice when we started hiking together.

I used it for one person mostly. It was a luxury item but for the weight it was worth it. We both had our own tents.
