ShellTA as a Tarp
October 29, 2008
With three sides low to the ground this arrangement copes with changes in wind direction. The site was chosen on the edge of a forest for wind protection. In very strong winds I would have chosen a pitch among the trees.
The stuff sack is used over the pole to prevent it wearing the fabric.
You can see from the picture that by supporting the hood more space is created inside and the fabric is held taut.
