MSR Mini Groundhogs
Posted: Tue 29 Sep, 2015 10:56 amTarptent sent me some MiniGroundhogs to play with.
Our shelters come with the Easton 6" or 8" tubular types but we have also had in stock the Ti V shaped 6".
I am very impressed with these Mini Hogs.
About the same weight as the 6" Easton ( somewhere around 8-9g according to my 5g increment scale) I can't bend them and seem to have about the same holding power as the Easton do.
The string loop is strong enough to use to pull them out , with the Easton you are better off giving the peg a nudge with your boot first and then pull.
A couple will end up in my own kit . (I prefer the longer type...)
