    $80 to spend for a rainfly/tarp - what do you get?

    I'm considering an ENO ProFly to go with my Doublenest since I can use a 20% off coupon on it right now... but I'm curious if there is a better option in the same price range.

    What would you guys get if you had $70-80 to spend on a rainfly or tarp?

    I beg to differ. Warbonnet has an "edge" tarp, costs about $85 i think... really close to your price range, and its sil-nylon. In other words: extremely light and packable. And i believe it's bigger than the eno tarp garbage. Never buy a tarp from eno. I learned the hard way.

    Thanks for the suggestion.

    I actually ended up already ordering the Hennessy tarp with next day shipping

    Was hoping to have something better than my harbor freight tarp for the weekend.

    I disagree with the "ENO garbage" idea. Everything I've owned or seen in the wild from ENO has been top notch. I was especially impressed with the Housefly, but that's outside your budget.
