Nice setup !
Are you sure it's a good idea to attach the tarp guyline to your dog ? What if he/she sees a cat
Set-up looks okay from here! Good luck with it! Now you get to swap everything out several times, buy more gear just 'cause, and watch the weather reports more closely!

I've been playing all day, trying different pitches and stuff. And I'm already trying to figure how many months I have to save up for a Cuben Fiber Winter tarp for 360 protection!!Set-up looks okay from here! Good luck with it!

Congrats. I am jealous. My set up is not yet complete, I still need to purchase my tarp.
The tadpole is a great choice, I am sure you'll be happy with it.
What are you using to tie out your tarp, just curious?
The more I learn about people, the more I like my dog.
Nice set up all you need now is a Tq and a UQ
what a great 'little' tarp!
congrats.
i really like mine. i've designated it as my extended day hike tarp.
at its cost, i can really biff it around. just jam it into my day pack
and head out. that doesn't discount it's use, though, as what i
feel is a bombproof, weather-worthy tarp.
its just the right size, imho,for all 3 of the seasons.

Yeah I have a UQ and a Sleeping Bag for now. A top quilt is next on my list!! I don't have any of that out in these pics because it's been 80 degrees here all week!!
Wow just saw your question, yeah, I'm observant! The answer is whatever basic, thin cord REI sells! I'm going to replace it with some Dyneema cord from Zpacks, but I have spent way too much money on gear for my upcoming trip to get everything I wanted.
There is a really cool trick for tieouts using tri-stakes (ground Hog style). If you wrap the line around the stake twice, then roll the bottom line (under tension) over the loose line they become adjustable... I know there's a video around here somewhere. Someone help me out, its past my bedtime. lol
