I collected some data of the mass of various tent stakes. I used listed mass from the supplier or webstore listings – I didn’t measure the mass of these items, but used this as guidance before I purchased.

Here it is.

I like charts.

For our tent for the PCT, we kept some mini ground hogs for the four corners and door and used MSR carbon core stakes for the middle tie outs.

Lets see how it works!
