Do you have a way to keep warm if you find yourself in a sudden rainstorm when camping? You can make any number of shelters depending on the materials you have available. If you have a simple tarp or perhaps a military poncho, then all you need to do is various shelters you can make from a tarp.
A tarp is a great item to use to make a shelter because it is waterproof. This will mean all you need to do is position the tarp to keep you and anyone else sheltered when an unexpected rainstorm occurs. The type of shelters you can make from a tarp are basically simple tents.
The most important thing about shelters you can make from a tarp is to build a frame. This can be done using a few sticks or some metal poles. You can also set up a shelter to collect water that can be used to drink or for cooking.
