 "Amazing" 2010-09-01
By Andrew
I have used this tarp with just my trek pole and some paracord. It holds up in wind and rain like a four season tent. I trust this product to keep my butt safe and dry on every weekend backpacking trip. If i could give this a ten out of five i would. Trust me on this its a great buy and will last you a life time. I have used mine at least twenty times and its still as new as the day i walked into the factory and paid for it.

 "How much time do you want to spend rigging it?" 2010-03-31
By John Smith (Denver CO)
It's a mixed blessing. I bought it instead of a one man tent, b/c I wanted:

to save weight

to save $

and I heard tarps are all the rage in ultralight backpacking nowadays.

I spent loads of time online researching various ways to set it up. Using 2 trekpoles, rigging as a tarp tent w/ one trekpole, rigging it between 2 trees using a paracord roofline. Foul weather rigging etc...



I've taken it out overnighting now 4 - 6 times. 1/2 of the time it withstood rain very well b/c I was able to rig it well. The other 1/2 of the time...I would not have wanted to be there if it was raining. I've also yet to encounter serious winds....this scares me, especially if you can't stake it well.



Sometimes it has taken me 1/2 hour ,or more ,to get it rigged well enough to feel confident in it. Sometimes I was able to do it in 5 -10 minutes. It all depends on how much room you have, are there boulders that prevent you from staking where you need to? Are the trees close enough? etc...if the soil is rocky, you better hope you have some trees...that's an argument for something w/ poles instead. At least you can set up a tent without stakes if you must...



So, it can be both fun/creative to set up, and be frustrating. Better hope it isn't raining and windy when it is time to set it up! And by the time I added some $15 mosquito netting and a $15 cheapo survival bivy bag/ground cloth, I was inching towards the weight and cost of a quality ultralight $$$ one man tent , quality bivy bag, or quality one man poncho tent. Had I had another $100 or more to spend, I would've gone w/ an ultralight $$$ one man tent, $$$ bivy or $$ poncho tent.



But , for the $ I saved at the time, and the brainpower I've used rigging it, it has been worth it.



Plus I've learned all kinds of new knots! Go to [...] for rigging and knot videos. Also youtube etowah8x10 tarp set up for the easiest fair weather tarptent . see adventure alan for more on ultralight backpacking.
