Snugpack was founded in ‘77 .....tarp tent in 2002. Who’s knock off who? Tarp tent....I looked at those extensively. $224 for the ProTrail. $134 for the SnugPak ionosphere.
Poles needed for setting up Tarptent, they will sell you those , 4 stakes with TarpTent, 16 with Snug....then u need to...
Ya. This guy is not tough enough to sleep under a $180 rain tarp only.
For a bivy tent it’s one of the lightest, secure and financially realistic. Great reviews too.
