Campmor lite tarps

“Are there any supliers that discount the Campmor ultralight tarps? If so what is the lowest price available!!”

“What's with the k?”

“Who are you and what have you done with bacpac?”

“I have looked for sil tarps all over the net and found Campmor to be the least expensive. Since Campmor is a retailer I doubt that anyone is discounting thier merchandise.”

“The Trolls have stolen bacpac!!!!”

“How much do you expect to save?
Since the ultralight are about double the price of the nylon, I would give serious consideration to the nylon tarpaulins. I have two of them, 8'x10', and have been extremely happy with them. I usually carry one with me. I have added their "Tarp Ties," which are great for final adjustments with their "Quick adjusting stretch cords."

Good luck.”

“I debated the same thing for a long time NS, and I finally went with the silnylon. I mean, the darn thing weighs less than a pound....

Plus I figured if I ever want to take the tarp in addition to my tent, that's a pound less (difference between nylon and silnylon) that I have to carry.

I will admit that at the time, I was rabidly reducing pack weight...”

“I'd have to say that Campmor is the cheapest too.”

“Trolls starting gear threads are always welcome around here!

I got one of the regular "nylon tarpaulins/ground cloths" from campmor cause I wasn't sure I'd like this tarp camping and it was $30 for the 7x9. It's great. I can't imagine anything lighter but someday I'll have birthday money to blow and get one of the sil tarps.”

“I made my own tarp. It is twice as heavy and more expensive than a store bought model. Home made gear is over rated.

Who is the new guy?”

“A troll starting a gear thread?

The world is upside down and I'm spinning out of control!”

“I did notice that "backpac" has posted before, last couple of days, apparently not a troll.

Probably came in completely unaware of the unfortunate association created by his/her chosen name. ;-)

(Just kiddin, bacpac. Luv ya man!)”

“okay im new. when i looked in the miror this morning a troll did not look back. or maybe i do scare the natives and do not know it? go figure.”

“mouse, please don't misunderstand, "troll" does not mean "new."

A troll is someone who visits an online community only to stir up trouble.

Many of us here are relatively new. The hazing is usually not too bad. ;-)

Assuming you are a real person, interested in backpacking, a big TT welcome to you!”

“thanks much, I must tell you that you have got a lot of information on this site, im really pleased to have found it. and i think that im a real person, i pay taxes.”

“welcome mouse. You will learn to be neither shy nor sensitive around this crowd. But all in all, I think you will find it is a unique kind of place.”

“Any of you wondering cadavers out there have a recommendation on a ultralight and high strength tarp (tent) stake.”

“Wal-mart carries a good tent stake. Four to a pac.”

“I got the walmart aluminum ones. at 4 for $2, if I bend one really bad, I can either A) bend it back or B) recycle and replace them.”

“Simon Metals Titanium Tent stakes... Worth every penny!!!

Or I think I saw Titanium Stakes on a couple other manufactures websites also... MSR and Snowpeak had them I believe.”

“oware has some on sale @ owareusa.com”

“Run down to the hard ware store or lumber yard and pick up some aluminum spouting nails. Very light and very ridged.”
