a base portion;
a first wall and a second wall extending from the base portion, the first wall circumferentially spaced from the second wall, the first and second walls extend in an axial direction along at least 80% of an axial length of the base portion, the first and second walls extending at an angle less than 90° from the base portion, the first and second walls extending towards one another, and wherein the first and second walls provide angled surfaces configured to receive a carrier therebetween.
2. The blade outer air seal of claim 1 , wherein a first hook extends outward from the first wall and a second hook extends outward from the second wall.
3. The blade outer air seal of claim 2 , wherein the first and second hooks are substantially parallel to the base portion.
4. The blade outer air seal of claim 3 , wherein the first and second hooks extend away from one another.
5. The blade outer air seal of claim 2 , wherein the first and second hooks extend away from one another.
6. The blade outer air seal of claim 2 , wherein the base portion, the first and second walls, and the first and second hooks have the same thickness.
7. The blade outer air seal of claim 1 , wherein the first and second walls are configured to engage with a wedge seal.
8. The blade outer air seal of claim 1 , wherein the base portion is configured to be adjacent the carrier.
9. The blade outer air seal of claim 1 , wherein a tab extends axially forward from the first and second walls.
10. The blade outer air seal of claim 1 , wherein a surface extends from the base portion axially aft of the first and second walls.
11. The blade outer air seal of claim 1 , wherein the blade outer air seal is a ceramic matrix composite material.

13. The blade outer air seal of claim 1 , wherein the angled surfaces are configured to engage a first surface and a second surface of the carrier, the first surface and the second surface form an inward dovetail shape.
14. The blade outer air seal of claim 1 , wherein the first wall and first hook are configured to abut a second wall and a second hook of an adjacent blade outer air seal to form a cavity.
15. The blade outer air seal of claim 1 , wherein the base portion extends between a first circumferential side and a second circumferential side, the first wall arranged at the first circumferential side and the second wall arranged at the second circumferential side.
16. A turbine section for a gas turbine engine, comprising:
a turbine blade extending radially outwardly to a radially outer tip and for rotation about an axis of rotation;
a blade outer air seal having a plurality of seal segments arranged circumferentially about an axis and mounted radially outward of the radially outer tip by a carrier;
at least one of the seal segments having a base portion, a first wall and a second wall extending from the base portion, the first wall circumferentially spaced from the second wall, the first and second walls extend in an axial direction along at least 80% of an axial length of the base portion, the first and second walls extending at an angle less than 90° from the base portion, the first and second walls extending towards one another, and wherein the first and second walls provide angled surfaces configured to receive a portion of the carrier therebetween.
17. The turbine section of claim 16 , wherein the first wall and a first hook of the at least one seal segment are arranged adjacent a second wall and a second hook of an adjacent seal segment to form a seal cavity therebetween.
18. The turbine section of claim 16 , wherein a first hook extends outward from the first wall and a second hook extends outward from the second wall, the first and second hooks extend away from one another.
19. The turbine section of claim 18 , wherein the first and second hooks are substantially parallel to the base portion.
