I bought this for a trip last year and then ended up staying under a friend’s rig instead. This is in new condition and has only been set up in the yard. I modified the tarp to lighten it’s weight and give it more versatility. I removed the heavier straps, trekking pole baskets, and buckles that were originally on the tie-outs and replaced them with line loc 3 line adjusters and 2.3 dyneema reflective glowire by lawson outdoor equipment co. The 6 side tie-outs have about 18″ of cord adjustability compared to the original straps which only allowed for about 4″ of adjustment. The two ridge line tie-outs have about 7′ of cord adjustability and the line locs include loops and are placed on the stake end. Also included are 2 x 48 zpacks carbon fiber poles, which weigh 2 oz each. These are newer style offerings that are stronger and have cuben fiber tape at the joints. I’ve used them with other tarps for a while but they are in excellent condition. I find these make pitching very easy and fast, and given their featherlight weight, they are a nice edition to this tarp. This is a great all-around tarp, and with catenary cut edges, line locs and the carbon fiber poles, set-up is very fast and forgiving. A great all-around camping tarp. Granite gear’s white lightnin shelter is a simple and rugged shelter that’s easy to set up and ultra-lightweight. Designed for the minimalist adventurer, the corners of this 30. Sil cordura® tarp can be tightened without re-tying to create a tight and secure shelter. Ultralight 30 denier sil cordura® ripstop fabric.

Slight catenary cut on edges keep tarp taut. Edges and center seam bound with tension tape to allow for a tight set up.
