Everything a two-person backpacking tent needs to be, the Grand Mesa 2 delivers it without the premium price

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:


"The Grand Mesa 2 is the tent I point new backpackers to when they want something dependable without a scary price tag. The aluminum poles keep the weight honest at just over four pounds, Quick Corners make setup genuinely fast, and the fully sealed floor seams handle wet weather well for a tent at this price point. The vestibule is compact but does its job keeping gear dry, and the mesh walls move enough air to keep condensation manageable on warmer nights. A great starting point that holds up well over time."


Getting into backpacking shouldn't require financing a tent. Kelty's Grand Mesa 2 is built around that idea — a two-person three-season shelter that covers everything a first serious trip demands without asking you to spend like a seasoned thru-hiker to get there.


Aluminum poles keep the trail weight just over four pounds, and Quick Corners make setup fast enough that camp is ready well before the sun goes down. The fully sealed floor seams and PFC-free DWR-treated fly handle wet weather reliably, and no-see-um mesh walls keep airflow moving through warmer nights. The EZ-Zip vestibule gives wet gear and boots a covered home outside the sleeping area, and the whole thing packs into a Shark Mouth carry bag at 16 x 7 inches for easy loading. It's a tent that shows up, does its job, and leaves room in the budget for everything else the trip requires.
