I use the kelty 16' for a combination of both
I use the cheapo blue poly tarps. The large ones like you can get a Wal-Mart.

+1 but only when car camping, too big, too heavy...Quote:

It is a beast, the diagonal is over 22', and over 250sf, it can be challenging findings spot large enough to set up, sometimes you have to get the ridgelines super high up on the tree to get a good hang. But once it's up, it's kinda like the superdome!Quote:

Here's a picture from our Salmon river trip in July. We combined the Wild River and a WL Big Daddy to shade our group area and river kitchen.

i have a Noah 16 that I thought about setting up once but it was too big. I am thinking that I should have gotten a smaller tarp. I did not have enough rope to make it to the trees and I did not have any poles.Quote:
