I have the snow park hammer and stakes and agree with you. They are camping tools made in heaven. The steaks are so strong they can go through rocks. Also the hammer has the weight at the head so it works for you rather than requiring you to swing harder as some campers do when they use a rubber mallet.

I have been camping in a flex-bow for a few years now. I have replaced my stakes with the Ground Grabba stakes. I replaced the awning poles with Green Elephant adjustable poles

Lag bolts and a drill!!!!!! You'll never go back to pounding those stakes in ever again.

It’s certainly faster but make sure you have plenty of battery power for your impact. I had an awful time getting them out one trip.

That man came out of that tent like MacGyver... Edited to add: I happen to like MacGyver. That intro was a nice touch...

Is there a fast way to dry it if it got wet? Maybe a heater inside or something? I don’t have my own yard living in an apartment so I’m trying to think of how I could dry it if needed.

That’s the draw back with canvas and you don’t want to store damp or wet. I live in a challenging location with no yard but was able to drape and rotate on an outdoor table. With my version you can open it up really well to air out or lay out. I know lots of hunters use them in the Midwest but likely the have food stoves. Best of luck. I think the do offer a fly that may help.

@@sdroverthanks, getting the rain fly is a good idea plus it looks nice (putting an order in tomorrow). Best case is that it doesn’t rain but that’s wishful thinking in the northwest lol

what is the ground mat you use with yours?
@sdrover 2 ай бұрын
It’s a sand mat by CGear. I purchased on Amazon and it’s the 10x10 size. They are expensive but don’t hold any sand or dirt.
