Product Information

Fancy making a tarp shelter, but need your walking poles for...well, walking? Just pitch up under a tree - a sturdy overhanging branch will give plenty of support to your set-up and allow you to carry on your adventure without needing to dismantle anything! Credit: Takahiro Tanifuji A: Tent and Fly stakes designed for 'hard ground' are often no more than a metal spike, and can pull out if the ground is softened by rain. Tent and Fly stakes designed for 'soft ground', have shafts with an 'angled' or 'star' cross-section, and grip any sort of ground better than 'spike' stakes do - they may be harder to hammer in, but they're harder to get out as well!

Angles on wall and roof can be varied, with a sloping trapezoidal set-up being stronger and more weather worthy than an elongated box. Fire Making Equipment Making a Fire can be one of the most important parts of Bushcraft or Camping, Not only does it generate heat and enabling cooking of a great meal it is also one of the most social parts of the trip sitting around with your friends. Read MoreThis tarp provides shelter not only from the sun, but from stormy and rainy conditions too - just like the rest of our range of tarps. Fold in Half, then fold each Half into Thirds. Small rectangles are the end-third of each Half. The size of the end walls can vary as required. A: 6-millimetre poly or nylon rope is a good size, with 10-millimetre better in many situations. Smaller diameter ropes may suffice, IF they're 'doubled' up.

NOTE - Use of a taut rope to act as a ridgepole is recommended. Run rope from ground point A, UNDER the tarp fabric, through top of doorway frame, and on to final VSS anchor. Template for designs using Square Tarps (10' x 10'). Crosshairs show Midpoint, short lines are Mid-sides.Using the large middle triangle EFG as a ground sheet, the two side triangles BEG and CEF fold up to become walls that meet at BE and CE. Top - basic line strung between two fixed objects. Usually either from ground to a tree, or between two trees. Fold shown at Half-way mark. In most Real Life cases, the fold line will depend on the amount of ground cover required...

The reinforced grommets in the corners will interfere with the folding plan, but there should be enough flex in the tarp to make the folds 'near enough'. Pitch as Body Bag above, but support free ends of last end-third section in air on Lee side as an awning. A downward angle aids weather control.
