AquaQuest Guide Tarp – Ultralight Waterproof (5,000 mm) Seam-Taped 40D Ripstop Rain Fly for Backpacking, Stealth Camping & Thru-Hiking

I bought this tarp to use for camping instead of a tent. The 10x7 tarp was perfect for an A-line set up for me (I’m 5’6”) in a mummy bag (with a rain poncho for a ground cloth). The tarp is lightweight, but sturdy. Even in the rain and wind, this tarp held up well. It is thin, flexible, and lightweight so it packs down well for your backpack. I particularly liked the loops rather than grommeted holes or clips. This keeps everything lightweight with no metal except my stakes. High quality and well worth the money. As a paleontologist and a BSA Scoutmaster, I do a lot of sleeping outdoors. I’m looking forward to using this for years to come.

I bought this tarp for a backyard party when Mother Nature threatened (& delivered!!) a rainy forecast. The tarp arrived on time and was neatly packaged in a stuff sack about the size of a pair of men's shoes. I am a former Outward Bound Instructor so I know a good outdoor product when I see one and this tarp met and exceeded my expectations! It is super lightweight, so despite its size, it was easy for me to put up by myself. And despite the light-weight fabric, it didn't let a drop of rain come through, even though some rain pooled in one area overnight. I used lightweight ropes, secured them using the multiple tie out loops. The prolific tie-outs made it easy to secure the tarp to various anchor spots around our patio. I used a combination of easy half-hitches, bowlines and trucker hitches. We were totally dry and everyone in attendance was really impressed by this product. It worked out perfectly and gave us the use of our lovely patio in the rain. I thought this product was a little expensive, and you can certainly find cheaper tarps, but this one is light-weight enough to take backpacking and use on the trail. I would definitely buy this again, & just might buy a second one!!

This tarp is relatively lightweight, quite durable, very waterproof and has generous tie outs. It's not the most inexpensive, but you definitely get good value for money. Aquaquest has a lifetime warranty on this which I've not heard of with other manufacturers. I own both a 10x10 and a 10x7 guide tarp. I'm very pleased with my purchases. They have other models of tarps that are more heavy duty should that be required.

Great quality. Perfect for the trekker.

Good tarp. Almost feels too thin to me, i worry about damaging it. So far no damage, seems sturdy. It is rather expensive for its size compared to other tarps i looked at, but it is a good bit lighter. I cant seems to justify the weight savings for the cost though over all, not recommended, better options for just a little more weight.

Light, durable, easy to roll up, compact. So much easier for one person to spread out than normal poly tarp. I set it up in back yard to test it out as an extended rainfly over a 14x10 cabin tent. Worked great. It extends out farther over the sides and covers an extended "front porch" over the entryway. It stayed in place during 20mph winds with stronger gusts. It withstood the sprinkler test, no leaks. It's expensive but worth it if you camp in the rain. I'm considering a second one to replace the poly tarp I use over the kitchen/picnic table area.

Great lightweight tarp! Strong and durable, holds up in high winds and rain without leaking.

This is a top quality product! After having used a very heavy 16mil tarp for camping, this thing is a godsend. It is very light, durable and keeps the water out. We bought this primarily to have as a shade screen and to keep our picnic table dry for camping (car camping that is) and it works perfectly. There are very secure nylon webbing tabs all around the perimeter and one in the center. There are no grommets to tear out. It also comes with these very nice nylon straps that are "Y"-shaped with a buckle in the center and several good stakes. This allows two points to secure a single tab. With all the nylon tabs and straps, this tarp can be set up in a multitude of configurations. With some paracord for a ridgeline or two and some Prusik knots from #36 tarred twine I've had this set up beautifully several times now.

Durable and light. Went Japan mount Fuji for camp and back all okay

Nothing bad

某dタープとくらべるとループは少ないですが私の使い方には合っていて複雑な張り方はしないので問題ないです。若干薄く軽いので収納袋へは畳まなくでグイグイ押し込めばなんとか入ります。畳むのがほんとに嫌いです。雨に対しては全く問題なく役割を果たしてくれます。撥水もよく乾きも早いです。

This is an excellent tarp to be used to keep large groups dry. Its lightweight enough to be portable. Good quick service

軽くてコンパクト！周りと差をつけるならこの商品はオススメです。
