From REI:
"A fantasy come true for ounce-counting hikers! Silshelter pitches with a single trekking pole and six stakes--setup takes only a minute. This ultra-light silicon-treated nylon tarp is specially shaped to set up on your trekking pole (not included) as a two-person stand-alone shelter. Non-slip Neotek pole cap holds pole in place at reinforced apex, with a second pole wrap prop-point in the center of the shelter. Features 21 webbing tie-outs on corners and edges, plus 3 webbing tie-loops on the body of the tarp. One webbing tie-out on the outside of the pole cup enables suspension from a tree. Front entrance flaps can be left open for ventilation or overlapped and staked for a weather-tight closure; no zippers. Will attach to the front of many tents as a simple vestibule. Pitch up off ground level for best ventilation. Offers 40 sq. ft. of coverage as a tarp and 70 sq. ft when flat. Comes with stuff sack and six stakes."
