Pitched these into crusty spring snow on a windy ridge and they bit in and held where my old aluminum stakes just popped loose. The holes running down the length let snow refreeze through them, so nothing budged overnight.

The little hole at the top saved my fingers when I had to pull these out of frozen ground the next morning. Snow packed right through the holes along the shaft instead of fighting me, and they held solid through a windy night.

Used these on a snowy trip last weekend and they held way better than my old stakes. The holes along the length really do let snow and ice pack in around them, so they lock down instead of pulling loose. The top hole made them easy to yank back out too.
