The MOONSHADOW is a large tarp that provides a reliable roof over your head. It can be used as a group shelter for rest breaks out on the trail. And it's big enough for at least four people to sleep under it. The slightly curved rectangular shape means it stays taut when rigged, providing protection from the sun and rain. All of the guying points are additionally reinforced. If no convenient trees are available, the tarp can be pitched with Jack Wolfskin TELESCOPIC POLE. The telescopic poles are not included with the tarp.
