Snow Peak Takibi Tarp Hexa Set Ivory, M

"What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:""I set up the Takibi Tarp Hexa Set on a fall trip where the weather could not make up its mind, and it completely changed how the whole group experienced the campsite. We had a fire going under the inner roof during a solid rain, and nobody had to retreat to their tent. Once you get the pole setup dialed in the first time, it goes up faster than you'd expect for something that does this much.""There is a certain kind of campsite that pulls everyone in, the kind where the fire is going, the rain is hitting the canopy above, and nobody is thinking about heading to bed yet. The Takibi Tarp Hexa Set from Snow Peak is built to create exactly that atmosphere, in every season and in almost any weather. The waterproof, UV-blocking hexagonal tarp spans 15. 6 by 13. 7 feet of elegant curved coverage, giving a full group of friends or family room to breathe, eat, and gather comfortably around a central fire. What sets this setup apart is the included flame-resistant Takibi Inner Roof, which attaches to the tarp and makes having a fire directly underneath a genuine option rather than an afterthought. Two aluminum wing poles, eight steel stakes, and a full guyline kit give the structure real stability when conditions get serious, and the ivory carrying case keeps everything organized and ready for the next trip out. This is the kind of camp infrastructure you set up once and immediately wonder how you ever camped without it."
