    Need help choosing a tarp

    Kelty 12 on the cheap or Warbonnet Superfly for superior craftsmanship. Wilderness Logics makes some solid gear as well. (As well as others). You need to figure out your needs and do some research on weights and pack ability and go with what best suits you. If I would have purchased the superfly first it would have been the only tarp I would have purchased. I am a bit partial to the Nube system as well. Check those guys out too.

My gear and I stayed dry as a bone under the Noah. I think for the money, it's hard to beat.

    Did your Kelty Noah's Ark come seam sealed? If yes, paste or tape sealed? thx

    I think Kelty Noah's is the better option.

    Woot usually runs a sale on the Kelty Noah tarps. That's where I got my 9 and 12. Here is a pic of my 12 in winter mode:

    Pretty sure mine is tape sealed..... If I think about it, I'll check when I get home.
