Yesterday I tried to screw in the ground anchors into the ground. That was a waste of time. Over the past 25 years I have put load after load of 3/4" crushed stone on our woodlot to harden up the roads and work area. I ended up going to HD and buying a 5/8" x 8' ground rod. I cut it into 2 foot sections. Then I turned the ends into a tapered point and welded huts on the other ends. Even these were very hard to hammer into the ground with a 4 pound hammer. Hopefully these anchors and the 4x4's under the poles will keep it down. I can also make up some rods to go down thru the 4x4's to keep them in place. I got in my new tarp yesterday. That will be going on this morning.
