This is what I consider to be the perfect bushcraft tarp.
More attachment points than I have ever seen! If you are a fan of origami and tarps, this is a dream come true.
Cons:
The quality is excellent, the materials are very strong. Typically when you have strength, there is weight and this is a heavy tarp. 3lbs for a tarp is heavy especially when a lot of tents these days are approaching the 1lb mark.
Not a great backpacking tarp because of weight.
