How Do You Set Up the Gold Camp 3 with the Footprint and Tarp?
Lay the footprint out as your floor, pitch the Gold Camp 3 Tarp over it with the poles and stakes, then add the Gold Camp 3 Mesh Inner (sold separately) for bug protection, or run the tarp and footprint alone for a minimal shelter. The footprint anchors your layout and marks the exact perimeter for a taut pitch every time.
Can You Use the Footprint Without the Inner Tent?
Yes – the footprint and tarp alone make a fast, ultralight floor-and-roof shelter. The footprint doubles as a stand-alone groundsheet for bivies and tarp-only camps.
Center Pole Reinforcement
The footprint is cut for the Gold Camp 3 geometry with reinforced zones at high-stress points, so repeated tarp pitches won't wear through the ground layer.

Comparisons and Alternatives
Compared with a generic sheet of polycro or a cut tarp, this tailored footprint eliminates overhang that catches and channels rainwater under your shelter. Big Agnes also offers Gold Camp 5, Gold Camp UL3, and Gold Camp UL5 footprints – match the footprint to your tarp size for the exact fit.
Price and Deal Value
At $20.00 versus $40.00 compare-at, you save $20.00 – and coupon SAVE15 knocks off another 15%. At this price it's an easy add-on; note standard shipping is $8.00 and orders over $45.00 ship free, so bundling with the Gold Camp 3 Tarp or Mesh Inner maximizes value.
