The Origami 2 Ultralight Tarp that you have purchased is

a unique shelter in that you will be able to use and pitch

this tarp in an infinite amount of configurations. Your tarp

is configured with 5 equilateral triangle patterns, which

allows for panels to be folded in various ways depending

on the desired configuration. You will notice that on the

exterior of your Origami 2 Ultralight Tarp there are 5 stake

out points, 5 bias binding guy outs, and 5 reflective guy

outs points. You will also notice that on the underside of

the stake out points and the bias binding guy outs there

are internal loops and the underside of the reflective guy

outs are ties. All of these points are integral aspects of

your tarps pitching configurations. As you become more

familiar with your tarp you will also become more creative

in the various pitching possibilities. Two variations later

on in the instructions. Enjoy the variations and explore the

possibilities.

First Pitch

In order to familiarize yourself with your new Origami 2 Ultra

-

light Tarp we suggest that you “test pitch” it before embarking

on a wilderness adventure.

Unfurl the Tarp and Assemble the Poles

The Origami 2 Ultralight comes w/out any poles, so in order to

pitch this tarp you will need a trekking pole or a tree branch

to suspend your tarp from. Unfold the tarp and lay flat on the

ground so that the Sierra Designs logos are visible.

Stake Out and Erect the Tarp

Start by staking out points B, C, & D of the tarp (Figure 1),

and make sure that the tarp door is open. Next, you will want

to adjust your trekking pole to its desired height, (approxi

-

mately 48”). To finish you will now need to stake out points

A & E. In order to get a taut pitch we suggest that you work

your way around the tarp and adjust the stake out points as

necessary until the desired tautness is achieved, as well as ad

-

justing your trekking pole to the desired height.

Pitching Variations

As mentioned above one of the many benefits of the

Origami 2 Ultralight Tarp is its’ ample pitching variations.

On the following page is an example of an alternative way to

pitch your tarp.
