Just been youtubing and came across this video on a real simple and quick shelter (LINK (http://youtu.be/pneD0wu8O3w))

I think I may have seen that in a diagram, but not a video. Nice find, and an excellent "design". Reputation added. :)

Nice little set up.

He mentions his tarp is 8X10. Mine's 10X8 and being the wrong size it's a shame I can't copy this configuration :confused:

Good one. I like what he'd done to the tarp to. Basically he made a Jerven tarp...that is so cheap you will be willing to use it next to a fire.
On my last trip I was a bit cold on my back sitting by the fire. Wondered about using my jerven bag as a heat reflector...but was afraid spraks would burn holes in the 200+ £ thing.
So on monday it's off to buy some spray glue. And make that heat reflector. it can still double as my pulk cover and luanching pad for when I jump in the hammock...or I just get a separate one. With the pulk, weight idoes not matter:-)
