But SO COOL to sleep under in a Thunderstorm!!!!
Even if it was (magically?) weightless, if it rained your mileage for the day would be ZZZZZZZZZ!
What I want in a tarp, in no particular order:
Ample coverage for the conditions I expect. In winter that means large enough to close the ends or the ability to add doors.
Ease of set up, so no bizarre shapes or "this end MUST go at the head end" or similar thing that can be hard to determine in a thunderstorm &/or at night.
Ample tie outs to allow it to withstand that all night T-storm &/or to allow you to do different configurations (Like close the ends in winter).
A color that allows me to not stand out if I'm trying to be discrete ("Hide") in most conditions.
Strength to withstand a typical T-storm, but light enough to not be an unnecessary burden.
I'm sure there is more, but I can't think of them right now!
