No tree around?...click here Bad storm coming?...click here One Pound Tarp 14 ounces 8' X 10' Fast drying silicone coated nylon Supports designs other than the basic A-frame with 16 grommets and 3 ties Tarps just make sense. For starters, they avoid unnecessary features like floors and doors. You can use an Ultra ground cloth as the floor. A door can be fashioned from garbage bags fastened to the strategically placed ties. Tarps are easy to set up and tear down. Last but not least, there's no condensation problem. If you're the creative type, you can rig the tarp in shapes other than the basic A-frame design. It can easily accommodate two people. Ties are reinforced for strength. Once you've experienced the pleasures of light and airy tarp living, you'll never go back to heavy, damp, dark, stuffy, enclosed tents. Ordering Information

Pyramid 4.5 ounces 34" H X 33" W X 32" L 4 corner ties 4 sides + floor Tap into the power of the Pyramid! Its five sides (count 'em) offer solid protection against insane mosquitoes. The floor (the fifth side) keeps the Pyramid positioned over your head even when you roll around during the night. Its single point of attachment overhead means you can easily set it up anywhere, inside or outside your shelter. Four loops allow you to stake out the corners. An elastic drawcord with cordlock snugs the entry-side around your sleeping bag for complete protection. A 24" zipper provides easy access. 34" H X 33" W X 32" L – just right for one person. Only 4.5 ounces. Ordering Information

Nylon Ground Cloth 4.9 ounces Silicone coated nylon Ties on each corner 42" X 90" Slightly heavier than the Ultra Ground Cloth, the Nylon Ground Cloth one offers corner ties to deal with the wind problem. Thus it can be used when sleeping out under the stars. Note that there is no foot pocket. Ordering Information

Aluminum Peg 1/2 ounce 340 E9 aluminum tubing with a solid tip Cord loops through hole in cap I like this peg because it's strong yet light. It won't bend when you jam it into rocky ground. At 8" in length, it won't blow out in a storm. Ordering Information

Titanium Peg 1/5 ounce 6" in length These titanium pegs are the lightest of the lightest. At 1/5 ounce, they are 20% lighter than traditional titanium stakes! Their skinny 6" size packs easily, resists dirt cling, and they are strong. When driven into rocky ground, titanium springs back to a straight shaft rather than bend if it encounters resistance.
