When to Use Them<\/h2>\n

These thinner stakes are easier to penetrate moderately hard ground compared to thicker stakes like the V-Shaped ones<\/a>. Therefore, you’ll need to use rocks to secure them in loose ground or in strong wind conditions.<\/p>\n

To keep your stakes inside your backpack and prevent them from soiling or wetting your clothes, we recommend using ultralight storage bags made of Cuben Fiber. You’ll find a model suitable for tent stakes.<\/p>\n

How Many Stakes Do You Need<\/h2>\n

Most configurations used in tents or tarps<\/a> require a minimum of 6 stakes. 4 are used for the corners and 2 stakes are used to tension the vestibule. That’s the usual setup.<\/p>\n

But depending on the area where you’ll be camping, you may need some more stakes, especially in very windy exposed areas. In that case, get some sturdier V-Shaped stakes. We often combine different stakes to help us shave off some weight from our backpacks.<\/p>\n
