nice. . .   thank you for that.  Do you have videos available for the other things you showed (hammock, other tent configurations )?

How about other sorts of neat things to know ?

Thats about as cool as it gets. Ive got a bug to leave behind the hot tubs and restaurant meal hunts Im accustomed to and get back in the boonies. Knowledge like this is priceless.

Good job on the video.  Can you give us some details on the tarp that you are using.  I was just looking into getting a canvas tarp today.

ChuckC, we'll have some new stuff coming out soon. I think we'll try for one new subject per month.

ALwoodsman, this tarp is 9X10 but it's a little on the small side.  I'm going to make up another that's 10X12.  That should be plenty of room for one guy and some gear.  Two folks could share if you want to get cozy..

recurvericky, I just got back from an elk hunt in north Idaho where it rained all of one night.  it does fine in the rain so long as you're set up in a spot where water doesn't pool.

Thanks for the comments guys, and don't forget to give it a like.  It helps push it to the top of the search engins.  ch

Nice video. I've done the diamond shelter when my son and I used to canoe camp. We used a nylon tarp for weight. Great for mild weather but we added a light two man tent for wet weather and used the tarp for a dining fly.
