Re: Glassing rain shelter
Sill tarp and hiking poles works wonders
Re: Glassing rain shelter
I use a military canvas tarp, best for rain but heavier to carry.
Re: Glassing rain shelter
I have to vote for a sil tarp and one of the old style thin foam sleeping mattress (like, 1/4" thick). You can cut the mattress down if you're not also using out for sleeping. Gets you off the ground and keeps your ass dry. Sil tarps are usually pretty easy to rig.

Always carry poly tarp on day trips... Too heavy for overnighters though
