Big Ass Camp Tarp - 10' x 13'
Be the hero of your hiking group with the Big Ass Camp Tarp! This oversized ten-foot by thirteen-foot tarp is large enough to pitch over a picnic table or group eating area. It can also be pitched over your tent to create dry porch area on either side.
Turn a miserable wet day in camp into a relaxing day watching the raindrops from under a dry tarp.
This tarp pitches best in a diamond configuration with two long lines clipped around trees, and two short lines staked to the ground.
This tarp ships with a medium stuff sack, 50 feet of 2.0mm Yellow Z-Line cord, and 2 Mini-D Carabiners to clip around trees.
If you prefer to pitch this tarp in an A-frame configuration using all eight linelocs, you will likely need to add an additional 50ft spool of 2mm Yellow Z-Line cord.

It has high tensile strength and can handle strong winds, storms, and all the typical conditions a tent will be in. All Dyneema® Composite Fabric material can easily be repaired in the field with the included repair tape if it were to get a puncture. The material is semi-transparent, allowing you to see the silhouette of trees when looking out. In bright sunlight, you can see the fuzzy silhouette of a person when looking in, but it is opaque in low evening light.

Big Ass Camp Tarp Instructions
This tarp pitches easiest in a diagonal orientation with two long guy-lines clipped around trees, and two shorter guylines at the opposite corners staked into the ground. It is meant to be pitched over a picnic table, group area, or over a tent.
Recommended guy-lines cut from the included 50 foot spool of cord:
Diagonal Ridgeline Corners - 2x 16 feet (4.88m) w/ carabiners to clip around trees.
Opposite Corners - 2x 6 feet (1.83m) staked into the ground.
It is recommended that you carry the remaining 6 feet (1.83 m) with loops tied to both ends to add as an extension to whichever line needs extra length to reach a tree. It will come in handy.
If you prefer to pitch this tarp in an A-frame configuration using all eight attachment points, you may need to purchase an additional spool of 2mm yellow Z-line cord.
