@wilf yu
The DD is a good choice Wilf.....if you decide to go for it?
The bonus being all the loops and eyelets you need are already professionally attached.......no mods required........ready to go.
If you enjoy trying out different tarp configurations......and have friends along now and then......it might be worth thinking about going big.......4x4
Being an equal square and a good size would be a help with shelter builds and configurations.
You mentioned the lack of suitable sticks in certain situations and venues to pitch the tarp.
Have you thought about adding some purpose made poles to the kit.
Fairly lightweight and adjustable height....strong.....and have a nice spike at the top that will slip into the tarp grommets giving a secure hold.
I personally find them a huge help and bonus with a few of my shelters.
You can buy different types......but I would happily recommend the Robens.......worth shopping around on price of course.
It's all adding to the costs......but so worth it to know you are prepared and working efficiently in most situations.
