Went to Dolly Sods last weekend after Jonas.. Awesome.... 2ft of snow in places. We snowshoed in. I did not have anything for tarp snow anchors. I found a piece of 2 x 3 vinyl downspout in the garage. I had just enough to cut up 8 pieces 8 inches long. Then used snips to cut length wise. Drilled holes in it. Made 36 inch leads and some toggles. I have prusiks on my tarp lines. Dug down with my snow shovel and after I got the anchors buried just put the toggle in and looped the prusik. They worked great.
We dug out under the hammocks to make a wall outside of the tarp edge to block the wind but still have air circulation so I did not have any issues with condensation or frost.
1 piece weighs 42g (1.5oz)
