NORDISK VOSS 5 ULW £190

This ultralight tarp (2.5x2m) weighs just 240g including six Dyneema guy lines (but excluding pegs). There are numerous attachment points, including four in the corners and four centred on each edge. The material is a 2000mm-rated, 10-denier ripstop nylon. Functionality is excellent, and the multiple guy lines and loops enable fine-tuning for a taut, sturdy structure with ample room for one plus kit.

VERDICT An incredibly lightweight and compact tarp designed for the ultralight, minimalist backpacker.
