Playing around with shelters

[Felton]

When big Agnes had their clearance sale on ground tarps I picked up a tenspleep station 6 Person ground sheet.

Today I played around with using it as a tarp. Easily large enough for two guys and all hunting gear. Not bad for $15.

Should work!

I picked up the same one, not quite sure what I'll use it for but there's a lot of misc options. That looks like it'll work pretty well as long as the middle doesn't sag with wind and weather. Thanks for the ideas.

I was able to tighten it up to get rid of that sag. I was concerned about the same thing. We will see what happens in the rains. I have confidence in it.

We use a similar but smaller tarp a lot during spring bear. Most years it works a as a sun shade, the year it worked as a rain tarp. We spend our days mostly sitting in one spot glassing.

Next idea…

If nothing else it'll keep a stack of fire wood dry.

lol right… it’s not getting taught on the sides here… I’ll have to play around with it a little more.
