I need something for a small group to use for rain, wind and sun shelter. It should be small enough for easy backpack camping. I don’t need the bulky “easy-ups”, or a screen room. I am picturing 4 poles, preferably something telescoping or shock-corded, that can be tied off to stakes. The cover tarp could be treated nylon or something else? The old canvas ones I used as a kid were pretty bulky, but they worked! For some reason, this has been tough to find!

Wal-Mart and Target have those reinforced plastic-coated ground cloths tarps with grommets, that may work OK, but no poles, at least none that any employees could locate for me!
