What do you use for softer ground to keep you tent anchored in the wind?
Camping a week ago and it was a perfect calm day with a slight breeze to help keep a person a bit cool in the sun. Suddenly a dust devil came whirling through the camp site and it picked up our sun canopy. My wife's instinct was to grab it so it wouldn't fly away but she was thrown 10 feet with the canopy. She was fine, just had a massive bruise on her arm when she crashed down on a camp cot.
The side of the canopy that lifted was soft and it was easy for the pegs to come out. I'd like to keep that from happening again. I bought the same canopy again so hopefully I can make this one last more than three years and protect it from the wind.
