Hyperlite Mountain Gear Ground Cloth
Best ultralight barrier for minimalist backpackers sleeping under the stars.
This is the ultimate insurance policy for minimalist sleepers who prefer the sky over a tent ceiling. It offers a near-weightless barrier against mud and moisture, though you sacrifice the full enclosure of a traditional shelter for the sake of speed and absolute portability.
