Tarps can be secured in several ways – with Ropes, Pegs, Bolts, Weights or having the Heavy-Duty Tarp (stockpile Cover) dug into the ground and backfilled. By ensuring that the Tarp is secured this will ensure that the contents under the tarp is protected, it also ensures that the Tarp itself does not get damaged.
A-frame tarps: 8 feet for ridgelines, 4 to 6 feet for sides depending on the usual side height. Hex-shaped hammock tarp: 8 feet for the ridgelines, 6 feet for the side corners. Tents and mids: 3 feet for ground-level corners and sides.
In fact, nylon rope is a great choice for any tie-down because of its strength, stretch, and sustenance in any environment. The all-around durability of nylon rope makes it useful for any job in any situation.
If you need larger and heavier weights, try a larger number of small sandbags or water-filled bladders to hold down the tarp without concentrating too much weight in any one spot.
The Adjustable Guyline Hitch, sometimes also called the Adjustable Line Hitch, is one of the most useful knots for tarp camping. This versatile knot allows you to adjust tension of guylines, giving you the flexibility to set up a secure, well-tensioned shelter with ease.
Polyester ropes, particularly polyester double braids, became the standard against which all ropes were measured. Polyester is still regarded as an excellent fiber for many marine applications and is widely used for covers on high-performance, or high-modulus double braids.
