I’ve got the hexamid pocket tarp, and bathtub floor. Easy to lose track of it in the pack it’s that small. Had it in the rain a few times without too much drama.Quote:

Got a hefty price tag on that tent from what I found online $1,470.00. How does it feel durability wise?Quote:

That would be me... After shooting two deer I once shouldered a 45kg pack to walk home. add in boots and rifle, I was hauling 80% of my own body weight. The equivalent for most blokes would be more like putting 60-70kg on their backs, not many would be keen for that I reckon. Less weight and less pack volume (without breaking the bank too) is a sensible way to stay out there longer and enjoy it more.Quote:

Another vote for the xmid. Very light, stormworthy and roomy. Ive seen some scarily big spiders in the tussock and for the sake of a couple hundreds grams I leave the inner attached knowing those fuckers can't crawl on me when I'm asleep.
That's funny - I didn't know there were spiders up that high... might change my mind on taking the tarp versus a fully enclosed tent. Or a flame thrower...Quote:

If youve seen @kiwijames nose you'd realize that 4-6 inch long giant weta would fit in with room to spareQuote:

Bantam-weight hunters club :D After that experience I aim for sub 15kg in and sub 30kg outQuote:
