Portable Waterproof Camping Awning Tarp Shelter for Rain Brown

TLDR; A good waterproof tarp option for outdoor activities, solid reinforcement on seams and attachments, too few stakes, poor stake quality, loose threads, price may be a bit high. The tarp itself appears to be of decent quality, with solid reinforcement at the seams and attachment points ( ). In several water tests, the tarp appears to be water proof ( ). The only issue I have with the tarp is the several long threads around the edges (photo). Easy enough to deal with, but I would expect a bit more quality control (-). The included stakes (photo) are extremely lightweight (0.425 oz / ~12g each) and do not appear to be high quality (-). Attempting to use them in U.S Western clay (Caliche) immediately begins to bend them. In addition, most scenarios will require more than 4. I switched them out for 8 titanium alloy stakes. which work well in our ground conditions. The included cordage and sack are a nice addition ( ).
