  I remember sometime ago reading how the Indians would sleep sometimes leaning with back up against a tree, probably a spruce. They always had a large wool blanket. Like the plow point that&apos;s tied up against the tree and goes down to the ground and is staked on either side. They were tie the blanket right above their head, leaving just a little room. A Dakota fire pit was dug between their legs. Once they had a supply of firewood, they would start the fire, stake out the either side of the blanket, pull it up above their head and throw the rope around a tree and catch it and tie it off. The smoke will travel up the inside of the blanket and go over their head. It filtered up through the spruce and virtually disappeared. They can stay nice and warm.

  Thanks for the refresher Shawn. We carry what we carry for a reason.

  A few years ago, before Beautiful Daughter discovered boys, we were practicing improvised shelters on the front veranda. She was thinking, fire up a mosquito coil, spread her sleeping pad and good to go. I pointed out some nasty clouds and there was some rumbling in the eastern sky. I suggested the large diameter bamboo pole leaning against a wall and the old inflatable swimming pool for a quick shelter. When the driving rain from the east blew in pelting one side of the shelter, I poked my head under to see BD bathed in the soft glow of a chemlight reading phone messages and sending details of her shelter to school mates. She quickly learned the value of a dry place to sleep thanks to a simple shelter.

  Awesome video AF just like always the Corporal teaches and it&apos;s up to the people to pay attention it&apos;s very smart to always carry the poncho no matter what the weather &quot;is supposed to be &quot;mother nature is very unpredictable now nobody can guess what the weather will do so it&apos;s good practice to prepare for the worst so you know your protected in your situation love ya Corporal

  Another advantage of a tarp: If there is frost overnight, the frost will be on your tarp instead of your sleeping bag or blanket. There may be some frost from breathing but that will be localized.

  I have spent 2 years in a poncho shelter over my career in the army. And the little trick with the sticks through the loop of the string was brilliant. I am definitely going to teach this to my conscripts. As someone else in the comment section said &quot;You never know what you need before you are in it.&quot; Resourcefulles comes with experience. &nbsp;<br><br>Thanks for the conent!

  You don&apos;t ever &apos;know&apos; what you&apos;ll need out there, but logic and experience will be able to tell you what you&apos;ll likely need.
