Rewards Program Terms and Conditions
Last updated January 1st, 2020
Opting-in to Moosejaw Rewards:
All users must accept these terms and conditions and create an account with Moosejaw to opt-in to the program and earn, accrue, retain and redeem Moosejaw Reward Dollars (MJ$). The program is FREE to join and membership is ongoing until or unless the user requests to be removed or is removed due to abuse of the program. Users can opt-in to the program while checking out on Moosejaw.com or at one of our stores or at any time within 30 days of purchase to accrue the MJ$ earned on that purchase. Once opted-in to the program, MJ$ will earn and accrue for redemption as described below until the MJ$ expire or the user leaves the program.
All information collected and used to facilitate the Moosejaw Rewards program is directly related to the program's ability to provide value to the customer. A customer opting-in to the Moosejaw Rewards program is a separate action from establishing a user profile as a result of making a purchase.
The program opt-in requirement was added on August 6th, 2019. Existing program members prior to that date must still formally opt-in and accept the terms and conditions to continue to retain, earn and redeem MJ$. Pre-existing program members that fail to opt-in prior to June 28, 2020 will be removed from the program, and any unused MJ$ will be voided. We really, really don't want to that to happen, so please opt-in or we'll feel terrible.
Leaving Moosejaw Rewards Program:
You may choose to leave the Moosejaw Rewards program at any time by logging in and clicking on the “Opt out Rewards Program” link within the My Account Summary page, Email, calling 877-MOOSEJAW (877-666-7352) or in-store with help from our employees. If you leave the rewards program, any unused MJ$ will be voided upon completion of your request.
Earning MJ$:
All items we sell are eligible with the exception of gift cards or other items specifically noted. Full-priced items earn 10% back while discounted items earn 2.5%. "Discounted items" includes items on sale or discounted via coupon code or use of MJ$. You do not earn MJ$ for shipping or tax charges, only from the item value. MJ$ expire two years after earning and are redeemed on a first-in, first out basis (in other words, we always use your oldest MJ$ that are closest to expiration).
Checking & Redeeming MJ$:
On Moosejaw.com, just sign-in on any page to see your available balance. Once signed in, you will see your available MJ$ and maximum that can be redeemed in the payment section of the checkout process. In stores, provide the email address attached to your account to learn your balance and apply to your purchase. We will also send you a monthly email that details your balance and other account activity. This is a transactional email that you will receive even if you are not subscribed to our marketing emails.
Bonus Rewards Promotions:
Every so often, we'll have special offers where you can earn bonus MJ$, like an additional 10%, 20% or 40% back. So if we are running a 50% back special offer, and you buy a regular-priced item for $100.00, you will receive MJ$10.00 in base points, and a bonus of MJ$40. These special offers may have a cap on how many bonus MJ$ you earn during the promotion, but you will always earn the base Reward Dollars. Make sure to check us out on our social channels for other ways to win some extra MJ$!
MJ$ on Gift Cards:
You don't get earn MJ$ when you buy a gift card, but you do get MJ$ when you spend a gift card. Sorry gift givers. You're welcome gift receivers.
Product Returns and MJ$:
If you return an item, we deduct the MJ$ earned on that item from your balance. If you used the MJ$ and your balance is less than deduction, then your refund is reduced by the difference.
Program Abuse:
The intent of the program is to provide our loyal customers with a way to buy great gear for less. Moosejaw reserves the right to remove any user from the program and zero out their MJ$ balance if Moosejaw determines that the user is abusing the program by buying for resale, attempting to game the program or any other reason at Moosejaw's sole discretion.
Are you Sure?
Our Rewards Program is completely FREE and easy to use.
By opting out, you forfeit all the Moosejaw Rewards Dollars your currently have in your account, which is basically throwing away free money. What would your grandmother say about that? If you're 100% sure, please click "OptOut" below.
Earn 10% back on all full-priced purchases on Moosejaw.com or at our shops (2.5% for discounted items).
The program is FREE. Just register and join during the checkout process. So Easy.
After joining the program, you'll receive your MJ$ as soon as your order ships. Then the next time you shop at Moosejaw, you can redeem those MJ$ to get awesome gear for way less.

Great Tarp[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Used the tarp several nights while hiking the Appalachian Trail as added cover from heavy rains. This tarp rocked and was great. It added a bit of a vestibule cover to the front of the tent and kept us wonderfully dry

Best tarp I have ever ownedI purchased the larger of the Escapist tarps (10' x 10') a few years ago, and I love it. I have owned a number of tarps over the past 45 years or so, and this one is by far the best I have ever used. The material is very light, strong, and waterproof; the attachment points are very sturdy; and the attached cordage and adjusters are very helpful during setup. The one modification I've made -- and I've done this for every flat tarp I have ever owned -- is to add a center-point pullout. For that I use a small grip clip such as those offered by Shelter Systems. The center point is useful for increasing headroom, especially in poor weather when you want most or all edges low to the ground or even pinned to the ground on the windward side.
I recommend getting the 10'x10' size if you intend to sleep two persons.
My wife and I use our tarp mostly as a dining fly (for 2 persons), so that we can eat away from our tent in bear country, protected from the weather. In rainy conditions, we may also set up or take down the tent under the tarp but normally use the tent in a separate location.
I normally carry three or four lightweight stakes and two or three ounces of lightweight rope of various lengths (1' to 40') to facilitate more setup options.

Simply AwesomeI'd already purchased a medium sized escapist before and was thoroughly impressed with the ease of setup and how well it sheds water and protects from the rain (it poured that night). This time around I purchased the large one just to use with the bug net as well, perfect for Texas camping. Provides airflow, ease of use, and again, keeps you dry. I highly recommend.

Awesome shelter !Used this tent for the first time bike packing. It is super light and packs smaller than a Nalgene. On the bikepacking trip I wasn’t sure how it would hold up so I brought a bivy to put under but was not necessary. I spent the whole night on top of bivy. From here on out only pad and bag under this and will use instead of tent. Could also be nice if you have a tent to have this elsewhere for a cooking shelter

Escapist TarpGreat emergency tarp. Multiple setups a plus. Ultra light and durable. Only complaint is the very tight stuff sack. Had to change it out for a little larger one. Goes with me on every day hike in my pack, “just in case”. I am very satisfied overall with Sea to Summit gear.
We are going to dry tortugas. Is this good for over our tent for best shade if we are out in full sun ?
Asked by: Nancy
Hey there, thanks for your question.
This would work to shield your tent from the sun, but it's a little specific for the job. The Sea to Summit Escapist Tarp is made to work with trekking poles and an optional internal tent body to make an ultralight backpacking shelter.
I'm going to have one of our resident Gear Wizards reach out to you with some recommendations. These are our in house subject matter experts, and they can provide some more direct assistance sorting through the options.
Keep an eye on your email, they will be reaching out soon.

I'm kinda confused,the description shows a shelter under the tarp. So does this include the "tent" in this price?
Asked by: Lenny
Hi Lenny, thanks for the question. This is just the tarp, the picture is simply showing you a possible set up with the tarp and a shelter underneath. Sorry for any confusion, I hope this helps!

How difficult is this tarp to set up with only 1 person?
Asked by: Caitlin
Hi Caitlin, thanks for the question! This tarp can be set up relatively easily with only one person, after a practice run or two. I hope this helps!
