The Tarps I use for Bushcraft and Wild Camping. My Top Five Tarp Shelter Set-ups.

When I was a kid I used a 12 ' x12 ' tarp for years

Could u fit a paria bivy along the back of the tarp tent shelter?

That’s a nice pine wood
Where it be in the land of Ing?

Brilliant 👏

Great tutorial :) What is the cord that you are using? You said the name. I did not catch it. Thank you.

🇬🇧​ A very good overview of the different tent canvas concepts.
The fact that at the end it was explained straightforwardly when a tent is preferable (in case of extreme wetness, cold and wind as well as stinging insects) is overall evidence of a sober view. With approx. 25 min. not too short and not too long, thank you!​
🇩🇪​ Eine sehr gute Übersicht der unterschiedlichen Zeltplanen-Konzepte.
Dass am Ende schnörkellos darauf eingegangen wurde, wann ein Zelt vorzuziehen ist (bei extremer Nässe, Kälte und Wind sowie stechenden Insekten), zeugt insgesamt von einer nüchternen Sichtweise. Mit ca. 25 min. nicht zu kurz und nicht zu lang, danke!

I have never camped with a tarp before. I just made my own and I'm excited to try it out hear in my home state of Missouri. My one concern is venomous snakes. Has anyone here had any issues in this department? As a teen I lived in New Mexico and camped in tents all over the desert. On two occasions while packing my tent I discovered rattlesnakes under my tent. They had slithered under my tent and had curled up along my sleeping bag. I didn't get bit but they were under my tents floor. I also had scorpions do the same. So does anyone have any suggestions to minimize this risk. Timber Rattlers, Pygmy Rattlers and copperhead are the main three I might encounter . On occasion if I'm near water, the cotton mouth is quite common also. I don't have a fear of snakes just a healthy respect for them. Thanks for any helpful suggestions.

Thanks Si, just what I needed 👍

Banging video as usual. I've been watching for around a week now, and I have to say I've been thinking about wild camping for a while, and it's as if the gods brought me to your channel to learn how. Perfect, thank you guy in the woods ❤️👍

Very clear and informative, many thanks.

Can you tell us which variant of the Warbonnet Superfly tarp you're using please? I see they do Silnylon and Silpoly and 20D and 30D. Would be interested to hear your thoughts on the various materials.

SIR SIMON BLOKE, WHAT IS THAT SACK YOU ARE USING? IT LOOKS LIGHTER THAN A RUCK SACK.

I enjoy your videos, especially as some of them feature locations very near myself! (I’m only a stones throw from Cliffe fort), may I ask a completely random question, what is the hat you are wearing in this video?

Many thanks,
Rob.

Those are some KickAss setup designs, some KickAss music at the end & the Tarp slowly disappearing into KickAss land. Awesome!!! Some of these shapes I've never seen before ,TY my friend for showing us all of them.. Now just to remember them all, lol. Stay Safe Stay Positive Never Quit.
