IRWIN Orange Flagging Tape 300′ — Guy-Line & Stake High-Vis Markers
Prices on Amazon
Neon orange survey tape for guy lines, stakes, and trip hazards — cheap, loud, and the reason fewer people clothesline themselves at 2am.
Why we pick this
Guy lines and stake runs disappear into dust the first windy afternoon — then someone clothes-lines themselves at 3 a.m. Bright flagging tape on lines and trip edges is the cheap fix that actually works after dark. One 300-foot roll covers a full shade build and the path to the cooler. Skip if you're a tiny two-person tent with no guys, or hotel-only; don't leave plastic streamers for the land crew — pull it all at pack-up.
- What it is: IRWIN Strait-Line flagging tape — non-adhesive PVC ribbon, bright orange, ~300 ft roll.
- Camp use: Tie strips on guy lines, rebar tops, bike lanes into camp, and low shade edges. Handy on dusty desert bike lanes and dark forest camps alike.
- Fall note: October dark comes early, so tie strips on before sunset, not by headlamp. Orange stays loud on wet, muddy lines when reflective gear is caked over.
- Honest note: Not duct tape / not adhesive — it is a tear-and-tie ribbon. Remove every scrap at pack-out (classic MOOP).
- Pair with: Tennis-ball rebar caps + rubber mallet so the markers have something safe to sit on.
