A ground anchor for securing an anchor cable to the ground, comprising:a. a body having a cable mount surface and an opposed drive rod surface, a drive end defining a curled tip and a guide end opposed to the drive end defining first and second guide forks, and an anchor cable mount projecting from the cable mount surface about midway between the drive and guide ends; and,b. wherein the curled tip defines a guide bore, the first and second guide forks define a drive rod slot, the curled tip and guide forks extend from the drive surface in a first direction so that a drive rod may pass through the drive rod slot into the guide bore, and the anchor cable mount extends away from the cable mount surface in a second direction opposed to the first direction so that the cable mount does not interfere with the drive rod passing through the drive rod slot and guide bore.
