Good stuff, Clay! For me, it’s the best, that is most useful, since your original one on tarp tents. You started out being good at this stuff, and you’re getting better all the time, including voice/delivery and entertaining inventiveness. Confidence comes with practice and confidence is the mother of creativity.
Where do you find those big heavy blue trash bags? After discovering Peter Storm raingear, that’s what I carry as it’s very compact and light and I can hunt in it. And I can sleep in or on it. But you can’t use it for a lean-to. I wonder how much wind your shelter can stand? Seems it would be a function of the weight and toughness of the bag/tarp, and how well the duct tape holds the corners. Could you not also use the standard trick of putting a pebble in each corner, folding the material back over that and tying the ground line to that?
Keep ’em coming. Aside from being cheaper and more reliable, woodscraft, doing more with less, is just flat sexier and more fun than storebought junk and battery-powered technology. I wish our younger hunters could all be exposed to this sort of info, on video and in the field, and thus find enlightenment before they’re too old and stubborn to change. Thanks!
