Delta Ground Anchor Ultimate Tent Peg From  £3.50

I got hold of about 10 delta pegs for this summer's camping trips.
In the new forest I used them on the longer guys of a low 3 birth tent. Their bright colour & low profile when hammered home reduced trips ;)
For a family camp with a large 6 birth I used them at the corners of the tent, and they were so secure I didn't deploy all the rest of the guys.
Most recent camp was on the stoniest ground - an old quarry site I think. I used rock pegs instead for the most part. I used a few Delta ground anchors on the softer areas but found 1 damaged when we packed up - one of the fins at the side of the peg had been sheared upwards.
Onl other comment, they take up more space - a problem if space is at a premium when you're travelling. I'm yet to find a solution to this, other than keeping them in the box they arrived in.
