<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\nWhen you’re ready to pitch a tent on rocky terrain, you’ll want to make sure that you have sturdy tent stakes. There are several different types of camping tent stakes available on the market. There are the traditional metal tent pegs and the more durable, lightweight rock pegs. Choose the type of peg that works best with your campsite’s terrain and budget. Read on to learn more about each type and choose the best one for your needs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
There are two main types of tent pegs. Rock pegs are the best option for hard ground, as they’re stronger than plastic power pegs. The metal pegs are less flexible than plastic power ones, but they will stay in place. If you’re not sure which one is right for you, try using one that’s at least 45 degrees from the ground. This method is easier on the hands and knees, and they’re also lightweight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The lightweight options weigh two or three ounces, and will work with your tent in soft ground or blustery conditions. However, if you’re a backpacker, you’ll probably want a lightweight option. There are some lightweight options, such as the MSR Groundhog. But regardless of which type you choose, the sturdiest camping tent stakes are essential to your success. They can’t only help you stake your tent, they also keep it firmly in place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The most versatile type of tent pegs is the Y-shaped stake. This type is best for sand-covered grounds, but it also works on hard ground. Soleader makes a decent tent peg for sand, and it weighs less than one ounce. They are available in a pack of 12 and are lightweight. You’ll find that this style is versatile and works in almost all kinds of terrain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The screw-style tent stake is a bit larger and more durable. Stakes should be driven into the ground at a 10-degree angle toward the tent. This method of anchoring your tent minimizes stake failure, and it will give you the best strength possible. When it comes to tent pegs, the hooks should be placed facing away from your tent. This will prevent your guy line from slipping off the tent during high winds. The Y-shaped pegs should also have the top facing away from the tent.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
