well peacock here with willow to salvation weather can't decide what to do this morning it great than the stormed all night last night notice kind of been off and on today but here's a there's a little set up here this is our PST the regular the regular personal survival tarp seven foot by seven foot the tabs around it some tabs in the middle like you see here now we set this up as a floor divvy and it weathered through the storm and everything fine last night not a drop of rain inside everything's dry and very nice in there so let me show you a little bit about this right now all right so what we do is we pitch this on a diagonal so we're kind of we're kind of corner to corner here and then what we do is we fold the the corners underneath which I'll show you in a minute so this side goes under and then this side goes on naturally kind of got a double floor under there and then this tab that's in the middle of the tarp right here just a couple of sticks right here that I put the forks together and use the piece of our shot cord that comes with the tarp through there and then we just pull up on that I give this pulls up and gives us a little bit of more elbow room inside and then we just steak off the front two corners two tabs down from from the corner tab that gives us a nice little one-person floor bidding so now if we look up inside of here you can see that one side on this side here fold it under and pull the cross and this side here is folded over top of that right here so that gives us two levels two layers on the floor and you can get in there and that's a much suitable back in there for about a about a six six and a half of person no problem at all and then with this front end sloping way out like it does it helps to shield a lot of this still you can still stay open on the front and yet shield from a lot of the rain and that sort of thing that inside of there okay you know back inside of this thing so I'm back in here I'm pretty pretty well shielded from the Wang rain and the weather you know I got a floor underneath this is small but it's you know it's a suitable one person Bibby you know where the ground might be dampers that sort of thing so it does give you that ground protection as well protection from the wind and the rain all that sort of thing if I wanted to I could even pull these two tabs together and kind of close the front end even a little bit more if I wanted to so there are some other things I could do as well to show myself more but this is a quick one person Billy that it sets up he can do this just like I did here and uh you know five or ten minutes at the most so it's very very easy very simple it's with our regular PST seven foot by seven foot very quick easy setup to do so this is another one of the over forty different ways you can set up this this tarp so this is very peacock wilderness innovation out here in us a little bit of the stormy weather whatever but still having a great time of them with our wilderness innovation survival gear
