Do you use them for your 3 season trips or mostly in winter?

Deep peace of the running wave to you.
Deep peace of the flowing air to you.
Deep peace of the quiet earth to you.
Deep peace of the shining stars to you.
Deep peace without end to you.

My 3 season tarp doesn't have them, but my big tarp does. Any time I have my big tarp out I use the side pull outs. I like the extra space they afford and I figure if I got them, I might as well use them.

Usually just for wind on the windward side. I prefer not to use them while it's snowing, at least while I'm sleeping, it creates a flat area along the ridgeline where snow can accumulate rather than slide off. It's always kind of a surprise to wake up with the ridgeline sagging near my face under the weight of snow.

I use them during spring/summer storms with high winds. Haven't used them for winter yet.
I use them most often to tie the doors back, seldom for pull outs.
use mine 95% of the time i would say
boot
