About 15 × 19 ft, big enough for a kitchen and two tent doors.
Coated on both sides
Woven poly, double-coated and UV stabilized, so it lasts in the sun.
Grommets every 3 ft
Rope-reinforced edges hold tension without tearing out.

Field tips
- Run a ridgeline between two trees and drape it A-frame style for a rain fly. Pitch one end lower so water runs off.
- Used as a ground cover, fold it smaller than your tent floor. Any edge sticking out catches rain and funnels it under you.
- Dry it completely before folding. Damp tarps mildew.
Questions
Are ropes and stakes included?
No. Paracord (in The Ruck Kit) and standard stakes work.
Which side goes up?
Silver up reflects sun and keeps shade cooler; green up blends in.
