    That is a super nice tarp. It looks like the dog likes it too, and seems to be protecting his new found shelter. I am going to have to save my money for one of these.

    S
    Do to time constraints and backlogs at this time of year, with everybody ordering and spending their tax money, with the work load the way it is, HG would only at this time do the length and not the width expansion. I think the length is not the problem as much as the width and having to cut, glue and maybe use twice as much cuben. And I know HG got a dash behind because they got blindsided by their cuben supplier for a week or more in shipping what they ordered and that even put them alittle behind. But,,very I am very happy with the coverage this tarp gives me and really see no problems as I am just a 3 season hanger. Joe at Zpacks couldn;t justify making me a winter palace either so hold on to yours!

    I will save 17.5 oz's not packing my OMW as its now the wife's. And its alittle more than half the size in cubic inches for packing than OMW as well. I plan on getting the wife a cuben tarp later on.

    I had to show off HG's workmanship and labor of love they put into their gear making. I love this tarp and the way its made.
