Make a Pull Up Tipi with our Poncho Survival Shelter
Description
A Pull Up Tipi is one not supported by poles, but rather pulled up with a rope or cord. Our PSSL Poncho is great for making a quick Tipi for one person, it is small, but can make a lot of difference in getting out of the elements.

Hey very peacock here with womanist ovation and I'm up here just kind of messing around
scoping things out and the weather earlier in the day was clear and the storms coming in and so it's cooled off a breeze has come up it's a little chilly coming out of the mountains and and I'm gonna want to stop and make myself a little bit of grub for dinner here so I've got my my pack here with my PS SL by poncho and long in MARPAT color and I've got a long fleece liner also in there and a little bit of some food and stuff so I want to want to go ahead and make something up but I want to get out of the out of the breeze that keeps kind of kicking up here and so if you've watched some of our videos before you probably saw you probably saw we're at the at the cabin where we used to be I set up a teepee with my with my PS SLE poncho now setting up a teepee with the poncho get I need some hitto some straight sticks that sort of thing I use like five straight sticks and set it up and made it you know nice little punch or you might check that video out to the poncho playlist on our YouTube channel and you'll see it in there look for the teepee thing but so I don't want to do today I think teepee but I'm not going to use any sticks I'm going to string it up from the one of these cedars these juniper trees here I'm going to string it up on the top and then stake around the corner so I'm going to use one I'm going to use a set of the tight chain of Chinese Isetta because you know some of the Titanium's
tent stakes to anchor down the bottom perimeter of the teepee and my objective here is to get out of the wind and you know rains a little bit off and on or whatever to kind of shield from that and still be able to I'm going to cook my meal on a little stove using using wood for fuel so I'm going to try to shelter up the best I can to do that so let's see how this all goes here alright so all of our Poncho's come with some parachute cord so I'm going to use some parachute cord here to string it up I'm going to throw it up over the branch of this tree right here and I'll come down a bill to to anchor off down here tie this cord around a rock or something here since the reasonable size this juniper is kind of thick up in here alright alright so I think I think I put up about right here that should work pretty good for my poncho here I'm going to use one of these tabs that's on the side this the one that I always I call this the shoulder tab so I'm just going to pop through here and give them a little Swedish nut things here so there we go alright so what I basically want to do is pull this up about high enough to where the this this punch is just under five feet wide and so I'm going to put this up so that the I'm about five feet a little less than five feet off the ground to here and I'll start kind of staking around my corners to try to make a teepee form I've never done it like this before it's really easy if you have some you know just some poles you know five five or six feet long you just throw three or four pulls out and wrap this thing around pretty simple but finding a straight pull pull in these Jennifer's a little tougher well I could find one but I just want to do it a different way Exley so I'm going to scroll that rock over that branch through the tree there and that kind of keeps a little bit of tension on here while I get in here and stake this thing out alright so I've got the titanium ascent stake that we carry here on our website alright so this tab right here is one opposite across the punch so you see the hood right here that's one opposite across there and so I want to pull it back a little because I do want to have a little space in there so we'll see how this goes and I might you know I may well I going to put these tent stakes have a shock cord on them so I'll show you in a second I just put that under there just an extra moment here
kind of slightly for right now it's like I say I haven't haven't actually done this setup quite like this before so gonna be a little educational experience here all right so so here's our view right here so it's not exactly a teepee right but I'll show you kind of what I know I kind of finished it off here but it is kind of a basic teepee shape only I pulled the door flap out this way for right now to give a little protection from the wind which is blowing at us from that direction now one thing I did wind up doing is I put a pole in if I found one pole I put in a stick right there that's my wind that's a sight the wind's blowing against and I found it's pushing in on a little more you know just kind of tied up the way it is so putting that Paul in keeps this keeps this edge pulled out good so that works real nice so now you see up inside of there we're pretty good we got a nice little wind screen here I'm going to cook right there in the entranceway and you know what I did is I I snapped the snaps on the poncho in a couple spots here and then I tied off to this tab right here back to the tree so that gives me kind of this pull out thing here and sometimes when I've done this this flat part here you can fold it back over if you want to close clear in or sometimes I folded it back out this way but since it's a little breezy or windy how do you side as kind of a wolf screen so anyway I found my fleece damn my fleece liner the goes of my poncho so I'm going to sit on not that I need to I mean if I could sit right there but and I folded any extra flat material that's left over I folded it back underneath and so you know I'm pretty good I think I'm going to get ready to to get a little meal cooking here shortly
all right so so I'm back in here I'm not feeling any any effects of wind or whatever whatever it whatever comes today I'm going to use the last time I use the Nano stove I'm actually going to move my pack I got plenty I got plenty of room behind me there we go get that out of the way and anyway last time I think I use the Nano stove so now let's do some cooking with Steve today I'm going to use the fire ant stove by my other friends over at M burn it and that stove it you know as you can see I mean it it's a pretty thin right there so it's a some stamped out emboss pieces got some little tab that I really need to go through the details early putting it together but basically I like to put the three this three aside and two back pieces and then the front piece here has that's where you would put your fuel so that would go in there but first I want to put my bottom in there it has some little raised edges on it that helps it so once you kind of click it together there it kind of sort of stays in place so set that like that and now we just click table pins in place everything locked down now or we're good to go and now I can I'll get me a little spot right here set and I'm going to gather some twigs usually what I do a shelter like this usually Paisley stock some firewood along the side here okay so you know if it gets rainy or something like that I can I can kind of keep it dry in here and I got plenty of a fuel feed to fire with so I'm going to go ahead and get that ready here and we'll get this thing fired up
okay so I've just loaded this stuff stove up with some twigs like this a little bit of some bark right here in the feed port area then I'm just going to kind of let this get started here like this and I would say that you know any time when you're doing something like this where you're in a shelter like this that sort of thing you're going to want to oftentimes take care of things a little bit outside the shelter at first so that get me a little more airflow here
so I'm going to do is just let this thing kind of get started here a little bit as these little sticks kind of get going and everything we will once it all gets going here we'll be in pretty good shape so here you see the sticks are starting to go here I'm a little bit more outside the shelter because I'm wanting to unless I'm wanting to let this breeze that can come through over here I'm on that to just kind of help get these initial sticks going here and once they get going good way I'll pull this back in here a little bit get it out of the weather now of course with something like this this type of a setup you're you're likely not going to want to put a wood type fire like this totally inside of your shelter so so you know we we do what we can here like I say normally I normally do an alcohol stove but we're just going to do it like this this time just because I can alright so I'm going to cook me up a little bit of some Denny Moore beef stew and about it if you've watched my videos a lot of times I like to do that on the first night out of a camp or something or just one night kind of little luxury item kind of nice - got a nice to have it's all pre-prepared already got some water in it and that sort of thing so you know you're pretty good but I I'm going to I don't need to eat that whole can right now so I'm going to go ahead and put a little bit of water in the cup but I'm going to dish some into here alright so I put a little bit of water in the cup just to kind of sometimes on a fire like this you have to be a little more careful than a in a home range because you can have times when you get a little bit more of flare-ups or something like that so it's going to be a little more soupy but it will have one thing I have experience if you don't watch things work real close and I'm good at not watching sometimes you can wind up burning a little bit at the bottom of your pot a lot of times we just cook them right in the cans but since I don't want to do quite that much right now I'm just using this as a glacier cup here you know it just just fits on there so there we go so so now we're in there we let that cook I'll stir it a little bit every so often I'll feed a little bit of wood in there and I see I can that breeze that breeze is blowing pretty pretty steady out there right now it's not gusty but it's pretty steady and I'm not feeling any breeze at all I've got the stove back here where there's little to no breeze going on it either all right so so I'm inside of here you see this makes a very nice one person shelter and you know I've I've got room I can I can rig this thing up where I can kind of sleep the fetal position in here if I needed to sleep it's a nice little shelter in here we get out here like that then kind of see back inside of here you
you know the nice thing is even though it's not terrible outside it is it is a chilly wind and you know it's more the more the wind and anything we're still in the wintertime here you know we don't have any snow right here but but at least with this little setup here using my poncho
I am totally I'm totally feeling you know no no wind no breeze whatsoever here so it does make a nice does make a nice difference that way well there we go
starting to simmer a little bit and see the steam coming off of there you notice I've got me a nice big stick down here in the feed hole nice big stick a cedar right there and that thing there is burning pretty nicely so I get a couple of those in there now and I can have me a nice steady little fire not too bad well the cameras a little crooked but I'm not going to mess with it I'm a little bit hungry right now so I got this stew going I got me a little fire going and I just got to kind of let this you probably can't even see the fire cuz I think the camera is too close but I'm just going to kind of let that be just a small open fire right there give me a little bit of Ray and heat while I'm in here and have my little stew here oh yeah that's good I don't know why I always say oh yeah this is great I already know it's good I've had this before you know I mean it's a little better to do a teepee type setup than what I did here I think just because having four or five sticks that you put up kind of like I did in that video at the cabin about last I think is last spring now you can look for it there on the YouTube on the on the poncho PSS playlist but that worked really well and having the sticks kind of makes the sides a little more firm because you know you got a stick going from the ground to the top and the fabric can lean against that but I mean this is about it although I mean I did put this one stick in here and I has made a lot of difference on this side where the breeze is coming from or the wind at times it gets a little gusty here but anyway I mean that's nice it's cozy inside here I got plenty of headroom I got enough shoulder room I could I could pull this side out a little bit you know and I think ideally I'd rather use three to five poles and do it actually you know more of an actual teepee style setup but I just wanted today I just wanted to try it as if you didn't have any sticks you could use you know and I did wind up using one but it would be doable without any it's just this this helps push out a little bit right here on this side you know so it makes it a little bit nicer that way so I don't know Oh at all it's very doable and I know it's much more cozy for me to sit in here than if I had to sit out in the in the open with that you know breeze that comes off the mountain through here and so this is much more cozy just keeping that breeze out and I can you know my body heat inside of here the little bit of fire in that stove that's kind of going right there I can feel a little bit of radiant energy from that I mean I don't need much but it takes a little bit of edge off makes things a little cozier on the show just another way you could quickly if you're out quickly rig up a shelter without making it into like we rigged this up like a tarp you know no problem but the nice thing here is this kind of encloses me most the way around if I need to be closed in more I can't even pull this flap here down and closing it even more you know and they'll make that even a even a better little situation the steamy stew is awful good I'll tell you an awful tasty on a not a day like today feels good going down let me tell you but anyway so Tony Perry peacock loving my time outdoors just tinkering around a little bit so now I'm just kicking back in my shelter here I'm leaning against my backpack here in the back of the shelter got my feet sticking out the front least one of them and I just kind of topped the little stove off with a little bit of film full of wood and added a little to the top of it to make a little bigger fire and I just try it just testing to see
