How many of you carry a superfly as your only tarp? I have toyed with the idea of carrying a small diy tarp for fair weather, and a larger tarp for sketchy weather. That said, the idea of being stuck out in an unexpected wind-storm, or being forced to camp on a windy ridge (like I did this weekend) and having your sleep ruined by cutting winds that freeze you out (like it was this weekend), is not a nice one. I have toyed with the idea of carrying a large, mamajamba-sized diy tarp with optional door kit, that I could put on if needed.
All this seems like a lot of tarps, or a lot of extra hassle in setup. I'd rather just have one do-all tarp. The superfly seems to be the best of all worlds. In short, who carries the superfly as your only tarp for 4 seasons? What are your thoughts? Do you find yourself using the doors a lot? Are they a nuisance to deal with when you don't want them? Any input is appreciated!
Edit: does anyone have any experience using a superfly OR edge with the WBBB XLC? IS the 11' ridgeline adequate for the longer hammock?
