TARP SHELTER IN RAIN // 3 setups with added schemes
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 27 ก.ย. 2016
- Here are 3 tarp setups (for 3x3m tarp) that I would use in case of more or less heavy rain. Let me know if you like to use some other setup, I would be glad to try them out!
PS! I am not using a ground sheet on this video BUT OF COURSE I use one when I really am outside sleeping under a tarp.
#1 The 6-point layout I actually used 7 pegs (in the video I said 6) and 2 trekking poles to support from inside. NB! Peg the sides to the ground last, otherwise it will not work so great.
#2 The fully-closed setup you need at least 3 pegs and one trekking pole. The modified setup uses 4 pegs and it is better when your trekking pole length is not enough to fully stretch the tarp sides.
#3 The half open with a floor setup needs at least 5 pegs and one trekking pole.

I really liked how you drew the shelter while also setting it up at the same time.
I found the tent building instructions very informative. AND... You use a tripod for your camera, you edit out long boring pieces of video, you talk to the camera like it's a person, and you use background music! Great job. You're already in the top 5 percent of TH-cam producers.
The second shelter; the pyramid design is the best for shelter from high wind and rain.
lol! I was just looking for tent ideas and stumbled onto you. How refreshing, entertaining, and informative! Oh, and here in the US, we call those flexible string thingies "bungee cords" Thank you!
THANK YOU!!!! Sorry about the all caps but I've watched half a dozen videos showing this tarp set up and they all have awful camera angles and less than helpful directions of 'now peg here' where?!
The little diagram showing a floor plan is so useful! Thank you again!
I love your presenting style- you make it all seem fun rather than an army exercise which so many Bush craft people do. You have a new subscriber.
The "rubbery thing"- Bungee cord! Great stuff always have several metres on my pack.
How can anyone give this video a thumbs down? I think you did a very nice job, thank you for sharing.
Haters everywhere 😤
i still come back to this for great set up instructions
Couldn't ask for a better compliment 😌
It's a bungee cord, the stretchy thingy,lol, you're awesome. 😁
Young lady, you just made my day. High fives to you. Keep up the fun stuff and enjoy . Thanks for sharing.
It's very nice that you made drawings and then the real setup - So it is very informative and clear. Thanks for sharing your approach.
Love the way you sketch out the floor plan as well, very helpful
Thanks for the tarp demo. I find it interesting and useful. I do it slightly different but your way may be better. I also like your dog. Happy hiking!
What a great combination of beautiful lady, intelligence, and innovative girl!! Thanks for this video, and, since I have tarps, I never imagined them to be used so creatively!
Thank you for putting this up. You have some great ideas and variations. I'm going to show this to my Venture Crew to give them some ideas for setting up light weight and inexpensive camp.
Great you called it a rubbery thing! That way, since english is only a convenience language, most of us know what you are talking about as well as knowing our own languages word for it.
This is written in regard to all the worlds viewers whose daily language and doings are not related to english or its sphere of influence, but share common pursuits.
That might well be most
You can never have enough flexible string rope thingies on hand. =) Liked the vid, thanks for sharing
So awesome! I'm glad you showed me how I could get around that extremely heavy or extremely expencive tent on my hikes! :)
I got a tarp to put over my hammock as a rain fly but always wondered what else it might be good for.
Thank you for creating and sharing this video. Happy trails!
Rubbery thing is bungee cord dear. Very good videos. Love the dog.
straight to the point no stuffing around thanks for your post
Thank you for this marvelous video! You covered so much information in 7 minutes and the drawing insets help very much. See you on the trail!
I enjoyed your enthusiasm and love of the outdoors.
the graph paper diagrams are super useful. many thanks.
Nice video. I have used tarps for camping since the late 1970s. In many countries and in many different weather conditions. Like you my longest trek with a tarp was one year and so I have a lot of experience with them. My main tip is that using bungees (the rubber cord with hooks) for some or all of the guy lines protects the tarp from even very strong winds and also from noisy flapping. I still use a tarp but these days but usually over a hammock, which gives maximum comfort and weather protection and is warmer in the snow. Happy travels!
Wonderful demonstration!
I’m using a part of your demonstration to make a 4 season shelter for fishing in the rain and ice fishing here in Chicago, 🇺🇸 USA.
The only difference is, I’ll be using a clear tarp, so I can see the orange floats in the water when they go down
I’ll be using a small propane heater to take the chill off ( fishing late October/ November ). Trying to get outdoors and make up for the lost time in 2019.
I had a beautiful brown Finnish Spitz 🐕 who used to love going on long walks in the woods, and fishing with me.
🎉Your enthusiasm is contagious and you have a lovely smile.
I know why, it’s because it’s so relaxing and energizing to be outdoors and doing what you love with no pressures
Keep up the good work! 💯👍🏆 🐕
Terrific. When I was a Boy Scout, our troop only used tarps for tents. They are better than many tents. Just add a waterproof ground sheet, and Otto's your uncle, warm and dry.
Also, remember, you can use a tree as a tall pole.

Just came back from my first night under a tarp, it was raining all the time. Thanks for your video, it was very usefull.
(I had a horrible night btw but I was expecting it, practice makes perfect)
A beautiful smile and a very interesting video! Thank you)
Never seen someone so happy making shelters. Subscribed to see more happy videos. Thanks.
Thank you for sharing your video. It was easy to follow all your instructions. I love what you call the "stringy ropey things" We all can see what they are buy the way you describe them was genuine and beautiful. Thank you!!!!
Excellent...love your enthusiasm :-)
Lol love your pose!
Bending over for the fans... +1
Nice vid.
first time in your channel. Your excitement, your positive attitude and your cuteness are contagious. Thank you :)
You are the sweetest! Watching this video definitely made me smile x
Nice set ups keep practicing there is hundreds of tarp set ups and you're a great teacher
After just 3 seconds of watching the video I had already thumbs upped and subscribed. I'm in love :-)
I am going to go hiking in Estonia in May, and I love camping under tarps. Glad to see they are useful there. Great video.
OMG your amazing, helpful, knowledgeable, resourceful, natural, and beautiful. The people close to you are lucky.
Don't know why I haven't subscribed before. I like "Bushcraft" channels, but, only ones with no drama or conceit.
Yours are straight forward. If there is a mistake or a modification it's shown and how to correct it.
It doesn't hurt that the camera likes you.
Keep on keeping on
Your stretchy rope is a Bungee Cord :)
Excellent explantions, best how-to tarp video I found so far.
Well done, We get lots of rain here in southeast Alaska. This will come in handy. Thank you for sharing.
Great video, beautiful forest in the bavkgroung. Greetings from Wisconsin (USA). We call those stretchy string things "bungee cords" in the States.
pronounced bun-jee
I’ve tried that 3 sided pyramid. The flaw in folding that flap to the inside is if seepage occurs, it is now directed to the inside and that open edge pretty much allows water to drip on that whole side. I found it works better folded to the outside.
Really enjoyed the video. I use a tent made from a tarp on my sailing dinghy for overnight sleeping. Condensation is always a problem on very cold nights.
An Army Poncho, UK or German, with a Poncho liner will make a great ground sheet for you in your tarp shelters. They are really good doing what they were designed to do too. Keeping you and your gear dry, warm and concealed. I admit to liking the German colours. Great for an outdoors person like yourself, on a budget. Good luck Estonia Hiker.
That was fun!!! Thank You!!!
HAHAHAA @ the spider and horror music. That was very funny
I used the first tent setup once, when on a hike with a friend. It's a really awesome setup. More than enough space for 2 grown men + backpack. Only downside was a medium buildup of condensation. Not enough to wet the sleeping bags though.
You have a natural way to make it look so easy, I will have to try it. Also, I think you have a great sense of humor.
You're not backpacking alone- you have your dog! :-)
Came for the tarps, subbed for the accent
I've done a lot of survival camping,carrying only bare essentials.both in winter and summer.I try to keep up on everything I can.keep on and ignore other comments.good video
Awesome video! Your sketchbook diagrams are a brilliant addition.
Awesome Personality
"Im a genius!" ...... Suscribed XD You are great and funny, and a genius of course
I have camped up north canada and there are many things that are important......a good sleeping bag is a must and knowledge how to make fire in rain , snow , is paramount importance...........be safe
The camp set up you have is awesome. being myself from northern Canada , you do instill great camping and bushcraft skill. thank you.
Thank you, good video, enjoyed the thoughtful input. Disregard the stupid comments.
The stretchy thing is called 'bungee cord'.
the woods are beautiful...you would be plethora of out doors knowledge to go hiking with, you have drive and passion for the out doors...I like that...keep it up.
And all those nice trees in the background to stretch a line between and have a nice A frame shelter.
Love the video. 'Rubbery thing with hook" is "bungee cord' ... but I like your name for it better!! 😀
OMG Becky look at her tarp
I love big tarps and I can't lie
Great job with all the tarp shelter set-ups. I used the third (last) one you demonstrated and for my use, it was the best. Rigged out my 3x3 meter tarp with all the guidelines, so it's a fast set up. Thanks.
+Frank Pike Thanks for the feedback :)
Opens video. Ooh dog! Immediately hits the button. Then watches video...Very good! Love the schemes. That's a very useful addition!
My kind of girl😍, Stay safe sis😚
nice video seems like a totally awesome person also
Estonia looks like a forest from a fairytale. I like the look of third set up the best. Set up that way it might capture some heat from a campfire to keep you warm at night too. Good job.
Brilliant video, the bungee cord (rubber band) is a great idea.
The rubbery thing is called bungee cord .... good videos
I think I just fell.in.love
That stretchy rope thingy they're called bungee cords. And they were around before bungee jumping lol... My dad used to use those back in the seventies to strap things to his motor bike. Great video, love it. Some brilliant ideas there. Thank you.
Cool.
There's me thinking "I wonder what ways I could use my poles with a tarp" searches TH-cam and I need look no further as this is the top of the list.
Thanks.
Wow! You look like a Norge shield maiden... a dark haired Kathrynn Wynnick😙
lil tip..
tie a rope between 2 trees.
throw the tarp over the rope.
stake it down.
done.
That was brilliant to use the bungy cord (that's what those rubbery cords are called) to wrap around the tarp and handle of the hiking pole. You've got a very pretty dog! I like your diagrams showing the stake out points and stuff.
I’ve been watching a lot of tarp set up videos lately. While I’ve seen most of these set ups the little drawings do help make them easier to understand. I found your videos easy to watch and entertaining. Great looking dog also !
Thanks! 😉
Im in love :)
One of the most important things that all of these style of videos don't mention is facing. Always put the low end into the average wind direction so it doesn't fill from the front & rip your tarp off you in the middle of the night. Experienced hikers would know these things but new folks not so much.
Excellent recommendations! I'm sure I'll apply one of those for fishing days !! Greetings from Ushuaia, Argentina!
This was the first video I saw of you and then I watched all your other movies .... I'm glad I did that because I sometimes have to laugh at you. Your movies are really nice.
if you have no floor you always trench your tent to keep dry the rain goes into the trench you dig it's like a water canal works great.
Can you please explain better? You always dig a hole under the tent so water goes there and.. its good?
+afroninjadeluxe
if you have no floor tent you dig a ditch about 6 inches deep and the rain off the tarp runs into the ditch and the ground in the middle stays dry as the tarp pita the rain into the ditch dug to keep you dry . if you don't dig the ditch the water can run all over and get you and your gear wet. you can dig a circle or triangle or square you always make the drainage part go down slope or down hill
I think Adam is describing digging a trench around the outside of the tent to guide any water around the tent rather than it flowing under or into the tent. Kind of like a moat around a castle.
a very beautiful outdoors woman the best kind there is
It was fun watching this again. You have improved a lot in your video making in two years
Thank you. Illustrative and informative! Whilst being good fun.
The 'rubbery thing' is called a bungee cord :)
“Flexible string rope thing” just so you know not criticizing! We call that (or I and the people around me do) a bungee cord in English. 👍🏻
😉 I chuckled all through her video about that. She does a great job. The "flexible string rope thing" just made it that much more entertaining. "Gizmo" is my favorite go-to when I can't think of, or don't know what something is called. Take it easy!!
I say mojäng.
I've been researching tarp setups and this popped up on my feed. Was very informative, but most importantly, very amusing. The number 2 setup looks like the tarp gave birth to you ...
Informative and funny. Love your work! Got a tarp delivery next week, can't wait to try out your ideas. Thanks!
Can i suggest if going lightweight you use just sticks and not ready made pegs and walking sticks. Much lighter then ! Great vid on the different ways to use a tarp, Can i suggest a couple of space blankets instead of the ready made pegs and walkers. For then your ready for cold n rain. Oh and always have at hand true 550 paracord. So my test to you. Two space blankets, One tarp and paracord and one knife with all you can muster in the wilds. Good luck ! subed !
Lol space blankets, they aren't as useful as you suggest and only in certain conditions.
Stretchy string things are bungee cords. Pronounced 'bun-jee', unless of course you're from Birmingham or Newcastle, lol. :-)
Thanks bunch and really enjoyed your last option, half way open set up. 👍
Thank you for posting this! I'm definitely going to try set up number three next time I'm camping. I've used method one and didn't like much. Usually I just set up "A" frame or lean-to.
The rubbery ropey thing is called a bungee cord. 🧐
You could carry 2 extra hair bands (hair scrunchies) instead of the bungee to save some weight. A couple of times around the trekking handle and you're done!
Yep, I have found that the hair bands are quite useful outdoors ;)
Great idea. On my list today!!
Nice video. I will show some of the tarp designs to my scout troop. Always looking for something simple to pass on, and get the kids outdoors.
Always a pleasure watching your videos even old ones like this 😀
