    I have panel pulls and snaps on mine and they work awesome in all weather conditions I've been in, which includes 2 near misses by tornadoes and several ice storms. I like the snaps on my Winter Dream so much I bought KamSnap pliers and snaps and added them to all my other tarps. One advantage to this is you can put the opposing snap to the door on the ribbon of the panel pull and snap the doors open as well. You listening UGQ (just saying). I always hated tying my doors and the snaps are the perfect solution. 1 thing to note, you want to fasten at least the bottom 2 snaps when setting up the tarp so your stakes are in the right position to allow the doors to snap closed and not be too tight or loose. Shock corded guy lines really help out with keeping everything tight in that regard. I rarely use my panel pulls on a normal outing, but they are invaluable if you get in a cross wind situation and need to keep the tarp from blowing into your space or it gets icy and you need some extra sag support.

    +1. I set my SLD winter haven up recently and I wasn't able to get ANY of the snaps to fasten. I didn't want to reset all the stakes, so I just fiddled with one end to get some more slack and it was good enough. Something to keep in mind before setting everything up "for good". I guess put the stakes in temporarily, insert poles, check doors, then reset stakes? I'm not familiar with this enough to get it right first time, every time.
