Hilleberg mesh box 10 - a tent alternative when paired with tarp - Hilleberg Mesh Box 10 Shelter

I first used a tarp some 35 years ago when camping with NOLs for a month in the Wind River range. It was great. Of course bugs were not much of a concern. Years later I’m returning to the tarp and with the addition of the Mesh box and a ground cloth I will have a flexible system which puts me closer to nature. The meshbox is well made with high quality materials and solid attachment / hang points. It’s very light. While not for everyone, this box alone or paired with a tarp makes for an interesting and effective alternative to a traditional tent.
