Ground Cloth
$175.00
We built the ultimate, super lightweight Ground Cloth for minimalist overnight backpackers who like to sleep under the stars, but who still want foolproof protection for their gear from moisture, mud and dirt. It’s a sheet packed with tech for any backpacker that loves sleeping under the stars, wants to keep gear off wet ground, or needs a spot for their pup to rest.
Ideal for goal-oriented adventurers constantly on the move and in need of fast protection from inclement weather, it’s sizeable but weighs less than an iPhone. Pair it with our Flat Tarp, Echo Tarp or UltaMids (if not using the respective inserts). Made of 100% waterproof Dyneema® Composite Fabric (formerly Cuben Fiber), it serves as an excellent waterproof barrier between you and the ground. Stake it out with its reinforced loops so the wind doesn’t blow it away.

Tough and Crazy Light
This is my first, but not my last, HMG Dyneema product. I am seriously amazed at how light and tough this ground cloth is. I was so impressed with it that I have since ordered a Junction and an Echo 2 to have as much of my gear as possible made from this material. It's an investment, but it is incredibly versatile and tough.
Expensive!!!, but great item for larger shelters
I use this mostly w Ultramids2/4; plan on evaluating the site for sharp objects before laying it down unless you are very well-heeled. Easy to repack into its sack.
just get it
used this with an ultamid on a few trips this fall. works perfectly. weighs nothing. stake out loops are key
Ground Cloth
I used the Ground Cloth under my Echo 2 Tarp on a recent backcountry elk hunting trip. The frozen ground near the lake thawed during the day and I could see a fair amount of moisture under the ground cloth. Thankfully, it kept all my gear clean and more importantly dry. I still can't believe how light this cloth is!
