Stinger Winter Tarp
From the maker:
"I want to share my winter tarp project with you and the community. I call it the " Stinger Winter Tarp".
The whole tarp , complete with 4 detachable doors + all the set-up equipment comes to ~740g or ~26oz.
I wanted to have doors, but also no doors, so I decided to make them detachable. I'm still a little bit undecided about the hook-up, but I have enough possibilities built-in. I also added a little channel above the tarp for the ridgeline. The tarp gets its tension from two pieces (left and right side) of cord which are a combination of a Prussic knot to the ridgeline and a soft-shackle. Altogether, I'm more than satisfied with the outcome on the first try.
Thanks a lot for the great materials!"
This is one the of the most striking tarps we've seen. Lots of detail and nice use of contrasting colors. Thanks for the submission!
