tarp clips for you to alter and custom your shelter find them little gems in my gear,and jimnys are awsome in diesel little hill climbers.
Best:
1. Clik-stand (I know some hate 'em, but I love 'em)
2. Hilleberg Akto
3. Mora Clipper - light and enough for my purposes
Worst
1. Swedish army trangia (I know some love 'em, but I hate 'em)
2. Grilliput (heavy and a pain to clean)
3. Those cheap waterproof pants that split in the middle of a long and wet weekend.
