First outing for DD tarp, and also first outing for firesteel and much practiced back garen fire lighting skills.
1st night, dreadful weather, erected tarp in a 2 man tent style shelter, stayed up all night despite wind and rain, woke up staring at the sky feelign happy.
Second night much better, erected tarp in woods (made some pegs too)
and practiced my fire skills:
30 seconds later, fire! Also made a featherstick, which went up like nobodies business.
Nice long fire, warm and bug free all night.
My first bushcradting, age 33, over the moon! My camping friends thought I was nuts, but were impressed by the tarp.
