Review on 🏕️ Ultra-Portable Telescoping Tarp Poles: Premium Aluminum Rods with Adjustable Height for Camping, Hiking, and Outdoor Adventures + Bonus Pegs & Reflective Ropes by Wayde Lash

I've been an avid rustic hiker for over 40 years and have used a variety of approaches to installing a rain cover. In the past I have used fallen branches and/or other commercially available telescopic poles for this purpose. Last weekend I used 4 of these poles for the first time to hold up a 12' x 18' tarp when camping for 3.5 days. The poles were fully adjustable (and secure) within the specified range. However, I have used my own more reliable rates to ensure the rules are followed. Rain caused water to pool inside the pair of bars, but removing the bottom cover quickly solved the problem. The rubber top caps are a nice added safety feature. My only disagreement with the way they are advertised is that while the bars are fairly light I wouldn't consider them a climbing item, the truth is I wouldn't consider extra bars a climbing item. I will be buying 2 more to complete my set to 6 for the future. Update: Bought 2 more poles and used them with my other 4 to hold an 18" x 18" tarp (see photo). Same goes for everything I said above. I love her.
