The MSR Blizzard Tent Stake is a great solution for securing your tent in the snow or sand. Made of 7000-series aluminum, this stake is super strong yet very light-weight (1.12 oz / 31.7 g), so a set won't weigh down your winter camping kit. The 9.5 in (24.1 cm) long stake can be placed like a conventional tent stake (vertically), or buried horizontally in the snow as a deadman anchor.
