Hyper Tough Weather Resistant Light -Duty 8' x 10' Polyethylene Tarp

I picked this up as a cheap, lightweight tarp to use as a rainfly over a hammock on a recent overnight backpacking trip. At only 2.5 mm thickness, this weighs about 1.3 lbs. For comparison, Harbor freight's lightest tarps are 4 mm thickness with a similar size weighing 1.75 lbs. High end pack packing tarps come in under a pound, but cost $150 . So, if you don't mind looking like you bought a Walmart tarp, this was perfect for my use. With that said, at that thickness, I would not expect any durability for regular use. We have a small homestead, and I would not use this tarp for any of the jobs I put my other tarps up against because I'd expect this to breakdown extremely quickly.

Drove ten hours in two days with this tarp covering our camping load and while at the end it looked like it had been wind beaten it never tore. Worth what I paid.
