Ultralight Tarp for Hiking
The ultralight tarp for hiking, Twin Tarp, made by Gossamer Gear in the United States, will be your best choice when the goal is maximum protection with minimal weight.
When to Use It
The ultralight tarp for hiking, Twin Tarp, is a shelter for 1/2 person that you can mainly use in 3 seasons (spring, summer, and autumn). It requires trekking poles and 6 stakes to secure it to the ground in its basic configuration (not included).
Apart from the basic setup, you can use it as a tarp over your hammock, tie it between trees, or use it as a barrier to block the wind in challenging situations.

Design
The Twin Tarp is ultra-compact when packed, taking up less space in your backpack than a water bottle. That’s saying a lot! Setting up and packing this tarp is extremely simple. It has generous dimensions, offering a surface area of over 4m².
Its cut is not symmetrical; the front part of the tarp is higher and wider. This design improves wind flow and creates more livable space.

Made of 10D Sil/UTS Nylon
The ultralight tarp for hiking, Twin Tarp, is constructed with a 10 denier high-density nylon fabric impregnated with silicone on one side (Sil) and a blend of UTS (Ultra Tear Strength) on the other.
Silicone is hydrophobic (water-repellent), making the fabric highly waterproof. UTS is an improved alternative to Polyurethane (Pu) coating. Together, they make the nylon fabric very elastic and resistant to tears and abrasions.

La he usado ya unos días y mejor de lo esperado. Aguantó sin problemas vientos de más de 40 km/h. Es grande y ligera. De buena calidad. Muy contento con ella.

Es de gran calidad y muy fácil de montar. También es muy ligera y muy fácil de llevar en mi mochila.

Lo malo que solo puedes usarla como A-frame (bueno apurando seguro que se puede cambiar)
Lo bueno es que no solo la forma esta hecha genial para sustentar el viento si no que se nota que es de muy buena calidad, de SYLnylon perfecta para la lluvia, y si llueve o hay tormenta, bajas los palos y la clavas al suelo.
Es una compra genial.
