Awesome! Hope you have some great trips.

Klymit sells their bag for about the same price as the Kelty Cosmic. I think they can be bought through Costco.

Quite a few! 🙂 Generally speaking, anything roughly 65 liters does the trick dependnig on how you pack. My ULA Circuit (about 65l) fits with some careful packing; my Catalyst at 75l has ample room. When I did backcountry guiding, I sclepped a canister that size.

Ok, great! Thank you.

Works well as an addition to a smaller tarp and cold weather quilt use. I don’t like using them by themselves, however. YMMV.

Thanks for the kind words. I hooked it to the supporting hiking pole in front or bacl depending. Worked well enough for netting. Makes a simple net-tent type shelte. rSome fanicer people will attach velcro to the tarp and netting. Works well but I think you lose versatility.

A quick question: How exactly would you rig up the mosquito netting above in conjunction with a typical A-frame or trapezoid (aka closed-end-A-frame) tarp setup? Lot of great internet sites (including the one you linked above) that show basic tarp setups but not much that show tarp + mosquitto netting setups.

Hoping to experiment with tarp camping and leave the tent at home as things start to warm up over the next few weeks.

Thanks!
