"I just received a GoLite Lair 2 tarp tent. The literature says you can set up w/ 1 pole, you can adjust high or low, you can adjust from inside the tent.

1. Unless you want the tent fabric to flap in the wind and sag, two poles are needed!

"Extremely light tarp with some great features. Can be pitched high or low. Foot-end is closed to reduce drafts and wet weather. My only complaint is the lack of a storm flap for the entrance. If you use the Lair Nest with this tarp, your entrance is basically exposed to the elements."
