Ever tried building an emergency shelter with just a tarp and some paracord? It's not as hard as you'd think. Anyone got any pro tips or clever hacks for enhancing this basic setup?
Love the mylar blanket idea, really boosts the shelter's heat retention. Speaking from a botanist angle, I'd suggest considering the local flora too. Some leaves and branches can contribute to added insulation and camouflage. Wonder if anyone's tried weaving branches with the paracord for better shelter rigidity?
Weaving branches is a neat idea, ChrysanthiDream. I've actually made a tarp canopy before, using a variety of herbs and plants for additional protection. Anyone tried that too?
