    • Great shade shelter.

This thing is awesome. My girlfriend and I spent 3 night in the CO wilderness with this as our sun shade for cooking and relaxing. It also sheltered us from some rain showers and high winds. The pre attached paracords in the velcro pockets on the corners makes for an easy set up. Im considering another smaller one for over my tent. Well worth the money. ... show more

Update (Aug. 2026): After three nearly back-to-back torrential downpours with violent winds, there was absolutely no leak-through. The tent stayed completely dry. I highly recommend staking out and securing all sides of the tarp if you anticipate heavy rainstorms or windy conditions. Original: The Kelty Noah 16 is a good sunshade and weather canopy, providing enough coverage to fully protect a large MSR Habitude 6 tent (Dimensions LxWxH: 95 x 95 x 73 in). On a recent summer trip with oppressive 80°F nights and 75% relative humidity, this tarp allowed us to prepare for potential downpours without having to put the rainfly over the tent. Because the 16-foot footprint is wide enough to block even wind-driven side rain, we were able to leave the rainfly off completely. This gave us total peace of mind against the weather while allowing much-needed, uninterrupted airflow through the open tent mesh all night. Additionally, pitching the sides low to the ground created an excellent visual barrier at night. It blocked the view of the dark, moving forest, which effectively stopped our dogs from jumping up and barking at shadows at 3:00 AM. Managing a tarp of this scale requires upgrading from the stock hardware to a heavy-duty rigging system. For structure, I used the orange Kelty adjustable poles, which telescope from 80 inches to 99 inches in length (not included unfortunately and needed to clear the tent’s dome ceiling poles to avoid water beading). This adjustable range is critical because it allows you to dynamically change the peak height and tension depending on your campsite layout. To assist with the overall structure, I ran a continuous center line underneath the tarp ridge and tied it securely to opposing trees. This line not only adds excellent structural support against wind and sag but also doubles as a perfect clothesline for later hanging gear dry. For the tie-outs, I paired 5mm paracord with aluminum Nite Ize CamJam tighteners, which made it incredibly easy to tension the lines without tying complex knots. Everything was anchored securely into the ground using rigid, diamond-shaped stakes. When breaking camp, keep in mind that packing this large tarp requires disciplined, organized folding practices. If you just stuff it or roll it haphazardly, it traps a lot of air and packs down bulky. It may feel slightly heavy for minimalist packing. Does require a large, wide-open spread at your campsite to set up and tension properly. ... show more

Poles not included; this was a major upgrade for my site. I have the middle size pictured here. I thought I might have liked the 16ft, this worked for me & my small 2 person set up. It’s great because in rain and wind, you can really bring it down to give you better coverage. I set it up with only one person, which was relatively easy in low wind scenarios. This thing is awesome. Highly recommend adding to your setup. ... show more

I was on the fence for this product and love it! Packs small and easy to attach to anything for a bit of extra shade. Even on a first try it worked great. Easier with multiple people to set up.

    • It's really awesome...but get the poles.
Size: 12 feet
Well made tarp, appreciate that it has pockets for the included guy lines. We use it for a sunshade because we do most of our camping in Florida. I have not yet used it in rainy weather, but the heavy condensation of the morning here dries pretty quickly. The 12 foot version easily covers a picnic table area and room to spare. Loads of tie downs and configuration options. I wish it came with the poles. It will work with any sort of tarp pole or hiking poles, but I held out and got the kelty poles, which are tall and sturdy. Wish they'd bundle the whole lot together! ... show more
