Integral Designs Siltarp
The Integral Designs Siltarp is an extremely versatile tarp made from ultra light waterproof nylon. Silicon impregnation seals out water and keeps the Siltarp's ripstop fabric at an ethereal 1.35oz per square yard, yet it remains incredibly strong and resilient. Functioning as bare-bones overhead shelter for use with a bivy sack, or as a cooking and gear storage awning, the Siltarp can be set up on hiking poles, slung between trees or attached to a tent or hooped bivy. 16 webbing tie loops sewn on the corners and edges, and one reinforced loop in the center facilitate a number of different set ups. Because it has no seams, it requires no seam sealing and is ready to go out of the box.
Bottom Line: The Integral Designs Siltarp defines the modern, lightweight lean-to.

My Siltarp 1 is the coolest

I love my new 5'x8' Siltarp. It's great for 2 for cooking or staying dry, and as a porch for my Sprite II. It only weighs 7oz! I put 50' of tent cord in with it, so I can put it up just about anywhere in a few minutes. I love my old 2.5 lb Stingray. But, this is the coolest, and almost 2 lb lighter.
The picture is from a 4-day mtn bike trip above Lake Chelan, WA in August 2009.
Change me.
