Just bought this tent for a trip to the AT in a few weeks. Set it up at home and it looks awesome. Question is, are the stakes that come with them reliable or should I invest in others stakes? They just look kinda small. Thanks for any help and advice you can offer!

I'm going to assume that your tent came with the same stakes as my friends Copper Spur 1, and yes they will hold just fine. The stake looks like a cross from the top. Those four ribbs add much more surface area than a conventional stake, and thus giving the stake much more holding power. You might find lighter stakes out there, but probably not ones that will hold any better.
