I was testing my BOB and it started to rain. I quickly make a shelter with my "All Weather Blanket" and a pair of wooden sticks:

That works, good thinking..........saw a guy that used a buffulo hide as a shelter, sorta the same set up.........this seems much lighter.

Nice and quick setup. I fought with covers that always seemed to be just a little small for me. That is till I found out our local Ace Hardware could get me different sizes and thicknesses on special order.

Just curious . . . what brand is that?

MPI makes them as do some other companies now. They were the 1st space blanket made, I had several when I was 19 and I'm 65 now. E-bay has them in different colors at a lower price than most:

Quick and clever. What holds it from flopping open if you sleep like me? I roll over so much my blanket is like a conveyer belt.

Would never work for me. That'd be like trying to stuff a ham hock in a postal envelope. But looks like it worked well for you. A little out of box thinking. (I wonder if I have any stamps. I could use a vacation.)
