Can't decide between MLD Grace Solo and HMG ECHO 1. They both look great, any pros/cons on either? I'll need to pull the trigger soon if the MLD could take up to eight weeks.
Thanks

If you've gotta make a decision based on *something*, which color do you like better?!
HMG's white or blue or MLD's olive drab (which I don't find drab at all, more like "soft lichen")
Do you care about the option to get the beak kit for the Echo?
The sizes aren't very close between the two. How tall are you?
Edit – the length isn't very close*
I'm still using my MLD cuben fiber Grace Solo tarp from early 2008, so you can guess what I like. That said, list the differences and see if any matter to you.
I do like the white, but color doesn't really matter. I'm 5'5" so length isn't an issue either. I would be using tent poles, not trekking poles. Do the D-rings that HMG use where you'd put trekking poles really work with tent poles? Seems like tent poles would go right through.
