You don’t need to drop a lot of money on a fancy tent. This DIY survival shelter can be built with just a few materials and costs only $5! Check out the post below to learn how.
There are a lot of survival shelter ideas out there on the internet, ranging everywhere from rudimentary shelters made from tree branches and leaves to the most expensive all-weather tent you can buy. Building a survival shelter can be difficult or time-consuming, but carrying a tent also has its drawbacks.
This video from BlackScoutSurvival will show you how to build a survival shelter on a tight budget. It’s worth noting that all the materials used can fit in your bug out bag without a fuss. Another bonus is you don’t have to bring a regular tent, which can be bulky, heavy and hard to carry for long distances.
With this tutorial, you’ll never have to worry about facing a survival situation without proper shelter. Check out the video followed by the step-by-step procedure. Then let us know what you think in the comments.
Depending upon whether one wanted to be round or not found, orange is better for being found, black is better for not being found. Having two different colored bags in your vehicle might be the best choice. This is a useful post. Thanks for putting it up.
Such a great idea. I missed the part of the bottom floor of how to arrange the bag. Think you use the paracord to hold the bottom sides of the floor down and then stake it with metal stakes or use a thick tree branch? Also had a bit of trouble with the accent and the softness of voice at the end of the sentences. Where the heck are my hearing aids at??? lol. Orange to be found, black to hide yourself is a good idea too

left coast chuck, if you have a vehicle, why would you make a tent instead of sleeping in the vehicle? Doesn’t make sense to me.
