No offense! Go for it.

Maybe look into the Kelty Cosmic down 20 degree. $99 on sale. Just over 2lbs. Just got mine, have not tested it, but it looks real nice!

Does anyone know the difference between this polyester and other expensive tarps that are nylon? Weight? JRB tarp is 19oz. and another thread lists this as 23oz. Any thoughts?
