The boon is looking slightly less likely for me.
I've just been given notice to quit by the landlord as she is selling the house.
So it looks like I might be busy moving that week.

Sorry to hear that Russell, hope you get sorted quickly.
Found some good period tarp shelter styles used re-enactors in the states.

Funny how they seem to prefer a diamond fly set up too. They also speak of using 12 x 12 tarps.

Again it's the base camp thing. once you have set up your stuff, you can then head out for however long with a lightweight kit.
sorry to hear that Bud, see how things go mate.. you never know....
weight was not a problem for them as they tended to make a base camp , had Pack Mule's/Horses, then went out from there..I think the diamond shape was a good one for room with a wide opening as well..
Thought it was time to bump this up, and get some more interest going. Anyone else up for it.

a boonie basecamp followed by a lighter load for a night or two could be interesting. ....
I did this one to allow for an extended experience, and also return to the main camp on the fourth night so we did not have to carry too much around, making camp at the main site on the first night then on the fourth returning to the main site, extra kit/food can be left here for teh last night .. or even a detor to restock after the second night
.. or even a detor to restock after the second night
Means we can store some supplies and kit. So anymore for anymore?
