Designed to stand with the aid of your trekking poles or be suspended from external peak loops this shelter eliminates extra gear for an even lighter setup, and with reflective guy points you get a sturdy fly that wont blow away in the wind.

Sweet Fly
I purchased the fly only and I was able to achieve a taut pitch with trek poles and also w/o poles by using guylines to trees. I only set up in backyard and look forward to taking into the backcountry. I think that anyone that has set up a tarp before will have no issues in getting a proper pitch with a little adjusting. I'm 6'0'' and felt like it was plenty of room for me. This is nice upgrade for me as I want better performance than a standard tarp in windy conditions.

Floor? We don't need no stinkin' floor!
Took this up for a weekend in Arapaho NF this weekend and got the range of weather from sun to rain, calm to windy. It performed beautifully in all cases. I highly recommend setting up the tent in your back yard before hitting the trail as it takes some practice to know how to lay it out. Remember, your trekking poles become the supports for this tent, so don't forget them! The tent comes in a stuff sack, but it can be compressed into a much smaller bag to save pack room. The tent repelled all rain, including a sudden downpour. You might see some moisture on the inside surface, but this is condensation from inside; I set the tent up on wet ground so as it dried the moisture ended up coating the inside of the tent. I'm 6' tall and with the front pole set at about 125cm, I had just enough room to sit up when the edge of the tent was on the ground, so taller than 6' you might find yourself hunching some. Finally, pitch it when you make camp, and then before you go to bed make sure you go back around and re-tighten it to ensure it stays tight throughout the night.

Nice off the shelf tarp
I was originally going to complain about the floor I purchased separately but realized I had pitched the tarp to wide so all good now. By the way you can pitch this extra wide and sleep (2) easily. In my opinion this would be better if they had to tie outs mid way up to tie out the walls cause they droop in slightly. I will probably do this. All in all though nice tarp. PS tested in high elev Colorado trip 4+ days wind, rain, etc.
