[pct-l] Choosing a bug shelter

I have a Mountain Laurel Designs Solo Plus tarp. I am looking for bug 
protection to go with it. I am looking at the Simblissity Inner Peace or 
the Gossamer Gear bug canopy.

The Inner Peace is heavier by  1-1/2 ounces (4.6 oz vs 3 oz).
The Inner Peace is twice the cost ($60 vs $30)

The Inner peace should work with the Solo Plus. I can’t tell from the 
description or the owner’s manual if the GG bug canopy will. It may, but 
I would hate to spend $30 on one and find out it won’t work.

The Inner Peace has more space.

The inner Peace can be set up without the tarp. I can’t tell if the GG 
bug canopy can be set up stand-alone. It is designed specifically for a 
Spinn Shelter, but it may be possible to stake it out and set it up with 
one pole.

Any thoughts?
