That looks nice.. hows durability and final weight?

I think as a tarp cuben should do well..but it all depends on who's piecing it together.

Thanks...didn't see that on their website.

Bammacker,

How's that cuben tarp so far? Do you have anymore pictures?

Thanks

I would like to buy a cuben tarp but all I see are gray and light green colors which is a deal breaker for me.

The ideal color choice would be dark brown or darker camo.

Does anyone have any...

The temps will be VERY mild. The rain is not an issue since I was actually hoping for heavy snow and single digit temps :)

This weekened i need to stay local. I am thinking about attending the one in MA, thats if there is not one local before then! In the mean time i will be seriously considering returning the HH.
