Waited for a big wind to test these stakes.
I got these for a Habitude 4 person tent rainfly. My previous rainfly ripped without the extra stakes and hold down strings. I wanted to wait for a big wind to know if they held in the ground on the mountain were I am staying. They did hold in the glacial till here. Some things I hung from the inside of the tent swayed slightly, but no oilcanning of the tent as happened without the extra hold down strings and stakes.

Tried Others?
Okay, so you’ve tried the other styles maybe looking for the lightest but they break or pull out. I have. Get the Mini-Groundhog and your search is over.

Just returned from a 10
Just returned from a 10 day trip in NE Nevada. I had some windy nights and the hold was impressive.

Light but be careful in rocky terrain
Overall, I like these stakes because they are light and great for backpacking trips. However, I've already bent two of them just by using my body weight to insert them in rocky terrain (hiking in / around the AT). I should probably be more careful, but it's still irritating.

Short but light and string
Short but strong and light. Not long enough if ground is soft but perfect in solid soil

Best light ground stakes I've used
- Familiarity:
- I've used it several times
These are the best light ground stakes. But yeah. There are better stakes out there but they are much heaver / better suited to car camping. For my backpacking these are perfect! There is a reason everyone recommends these. I'm using these with my Lunar Solo tent for backpacking / Volbiv

Light Weight but not Indestructible
I purchased these to lighten the load of my pack. I was expecting the shape of the aluminium stakes to make them as durable as heavier steel stakes. Too bad one shattered the first time I drove it into the hard soil. I wouldn't recommend using this stake in hard soils.

I have bought these more than once and will continue to.
I use the stakes all the time and they're great. They always drive in easy and I have never bent one.
