Description

You’ve heard of 4 season tents how about a 4 season tarp system? The Northern Light is built like our White Lightnin’ tarps with catenary cut edges, tension tape around the perimeter and down the center seam. Plus it has adjustable cinching corner straps to keep the whole thing taut. The addition of a snow-flap running the length of both sides lets you seal the sides from blowing snow in the winter or bugs in the summer. Add the optional Tarp Dodgers to both ends and you’ve got a fully enclosed 4 season system. Comes complete with micro cordage guy lines and it’s own attached stuff sack.

Granite Gear Northern Lite Tarp Review

A great system for all seasons. The first and only 4 season tarp scenario and it weighs in way under any tent's weight. Easy to set-up, versatile, and completely functional. I was completely dry in a 3 day blizzard with 90mph winds and over 6 foot drifts. It even seemed like the more snow that fell and blew the better the shelter got. I never felt like I sacrificed my safety by using this system instead of a tent. ~Trauma

"Top Tarp Value"

"Ten thousand miles. That's how far thru-hiker Justin Lichter carried this superlight, floorless tarp during his yearlong effort to hike the Pacific Crest Trail, The Continental Divide Trail, and the Eastern Divide Trail (Which combines the Appalachian and Florida Trails). It's likely he faced more bad weather than any other hiker last year, and he came back singing the Northern Light's praises. One of our editors, after multiple test trips in the Rockies, concurred: "This tarp is light, sits tight to the ground, and the pitch is smart and easy. You simply rig it like a clothesline between two trekking poles." Setup requires 12 stakes; foldable flaps along the bottom edge keep water from dripping inside. For extra protection, you can add optional closures, called Dodgers.
