I like the sitting Bivy. You literally dawn your poncho (with or without wooby). Place your pack on the ground with something to lean against and sit on it. Hood up and knod off. The best thing about this system if if something happens or wakes you and decide to move, all you do is stand up, dawn your pack, and leave. No ridge lines, no packing, no noise, no fuss. I have personally used this when hunting and doing overnight trips and it works well.

As allways a good video. Thx Have built this setup a dozen times but never really been happy. 1 -2 ridgelines, 2-4 knots, 2-3 prusiks, 4-5 toggles and 4 stakes.. you need 2 trees in a good distance, it needs ( too much ) time and the 210cm x 145cm poncho is in the rain, Snow or constantly changing wind not enough protection for me, 1m85cm tall. So my poncho setup is now Plow Point. 1 tree, ( 2 if you will lift up for more space ) 1 cord ( 2. if you will create more space ) 1 knot ( 2 and a prusik +1 toggle for more space ) 4 stakes ( 1 as toggle ) that's it. Knee to waistband on tree, fast lock with 1 peg, 1 peg at opposite end, 2 at other corners, done. Faster, less material required, protection from 3 sides, faster entry and exit, but above all the better length. Works for me way better.

Really a different competency. You want a homesteading channel. Humans need meat, nuts, tubers, legumes or grain. Nothing else is nutritious enough. Procuring those and storing them is a huge body of knowledge. You need heirloom seeds, organic fertilizer practices, propogation methods, hunting, smoking, salting, canning, pickling and fermentation.

It’s more about storing food than anything else. A typical fully grown oak tree for example, will produce about 10k acorns in a fruiting year. That comes out to about 1.1 million calories. Now obviously you’re not gonna be able to harvest every single acorn from a single tree, but guess what? Oaks are literally everywhere. So yeah just walking out into nature on a whim and expecting to easily survive is pretty dumb, but if you plan ahead and have a method for storing food long term, (acorns, nuts, seeds, pemmican etc.) and you’re in an environment that has enough abundance, then it is absolutely doable.

Homeless people that live in the woods are also experts on survival living day to day for 20 years or more. They know a lot and so do Mountain Men. I always ask them techniques and now i could literally sleep behind a police station without any problem. The best thing to do at night is to keep your eyes out of light so they stay adjusted to the dark which dramatically helps you to see things and/or movement much easier.

Another thing about vision in the dark: if you have to observe something, look a little to either the right or left of it. Instead of directly at it. That will make the silhouette more visible to you.

This ridgeline is like magic for setting up shelters and definitely makes "poncho shelters" tons easier imo which had kinda put me off them some. I have two ponchos right now; one is a Gatewood Cape which is a fantastic shelter named after Grandma Gatewood. Covers your pack when worn, and with a little practice you can set it up around you if it's raining. But it's also made for ultralight backpackers out of silnylon so it's not going to be all that durable (mine is okay, but trying to be realistic) . I want to test pitching it with a ridgeline like this because typically you use a 40-45" trekking pole in the middle, it's basically a small tent. The other poncho is a heavier duty military-style poncho with tie offs at all the corners, tie off to close off the hood, woobie attachment points, etc. I love the Gatewood Cape, but I have to give the nod to the more durable poncho in a situation like this. It weighs nearly a pound more due to the thicker material. The Cape almost feels delicate in comparison, it's even a bit translucent >_> Anyway, rabbit trails away lol. Thanks for sharing!

Tip for you to raise the hood with the second ridge line you used the bank line with. You can wrap your hood with the bank line with one or 2 wraps and then run it to the other tree that way you don't need another line to connect it. Figured that out.
@NewHampshireJack

Excellent emergency/stealth shelter. Good to practice this technique for times when you do not have enough distance between yourself and those you want no contact with. Our preference is a hammock (duyan here in the Philippines) with a tarp to get off the ground during the rainy/typhoon season. Some of our "skeeters" carry dengue fever and malaria. Bug nets are a must all year no matter what system you choose.

I appreciate your effort in creating this and your other content. I also appreciate the sacrifices you’ve made in serving our country. I would suggest sewing two guy out points to the peaks of the A-Frame on the poncho. This eliminates the need for the ridge line and all its excess knots, leverage pulleys, quick release stakes/twigs all together I’ve been using this method for several decades of tarp and poncho camping. Haven’t used a solid ridgeline for well over 25 years. It’s simply faster and easier to tie off each of the A-frame peaks and then stake out the four corners. Tension is easily adjusted at each other peak as needed with a quick release slip knot. Of course, merely a suggestion. You do you and I’ll do what works for me 👍

The Wilderness innovations poncho is the way to go. Different weight an types of materials an patterns or solids. Ultra light weight or 50-60% dyneema blend fabric. 12 webbing tie outs around it. To make a tent/tarp out of it. All the double sided metal snaps like the US poncho. Built in dyneema cord to be turned into a instant hammock. Can have optional sleeve extensions added to it. Can have an optional hoodie like pocket added to it. The poncho liner he sells has multiple colors/patters. Can choose the weight of the Apex insulation it’s made with. Has the head hole. To actually wear it under the poncho. Double sided steel snaps to match the snaps on the poncho. Also has built in bungee cords an the bottom of the front an back so it can be snapped to the poncho u see it when it’s set up as a hammock. An the ends can be cinched in with the built in cord. To become a full length hammock underquilt. Also sells a bugnet that slides over it. And a top quilt if needed And a ultralight tarp or can use a second poncho. An best of all. Sewn on tag. MADE IN THE USA. not some Chinese thrown together poncho. But something bombproof in quality. Own a bunch of his gear. Few ponchos liners an things. An been way past impressed with all of it.

I like the one where you stake out the four corners a little loose and then just tie the hood to a branch above, 4 stakes 1 piece of rope. Makes for a very fast very low profile shelter and seals easily around the edges for less mosquitoes coming in while you rest.
@scienceMicroguy77
@scienceMicroguy77 7 месяцев назад
The one with the branch pulling up the middle and the 4 corners stayed down as the only 1 we ever used in the army. I was in the army infantry for years and most of them were less than 18 inches tall and that was the only one we ever used because all the other ones would get you wet or cold and the 1 with the branch and the 4 corners stayed down you didn't even need to keep stakes you could just use 4 little tiny sticks. One piece of 550 cord and you're good to go. I started using a bungee cord that was black or green to hold up the middle piece so all you had to do is unhook it and then you didn't even need a tiny knots and the entire shelter could be pulled up and taken with you in less than 10 seconds.

I no longer use a USGI poncho. It is poor at keeping you dry while wearing it and it's too small for me when it's set as a shelter. I use a lightweight rain coat and pants and carry a tarp. My fave raingear is either Arcteryx Alpha SV or Beta SL hybrid or the USGI outfit that is reversible from woodland to desert. The USAF gray camo goretex Jacket and Pants is cheap right now but is great gear. The UK military surplus Basha tarp is enough bigger than the poncho to make the shelter much more useful. The Basha is very tough and is made so that it has lots of uses, including as a stretcher.

Or bring a shovel and dig a shell scrape about 30cm deep use spoil to build up sides and lay the poncho on to and spoil to hold the sides down. It gives you a low silhouette but more space underneath. We used them all the time in our platoon harbour areas back in the Cold War days.

Without poles you can make a lean-to by running over a bush with a corner of the poncho and some cordage. Stake out the other 3 corners and climb in. I personally would make an alpha tent, that way you don't have to worry about stakes pulling out and the poncho clapsing on you.

I still have my 80’s issue woodland camo from the Army and recently scored another from a surplus shop for $20!!! Super steal as they are nearly impossible to find anymore. I treated both with a waterproofing spray and wow, they are as good as new. Hard to beat issued gear but you’ll pay regardless.

I have a question on something I assume would blow your cover at night. What if you snore while sleeping? How did you deal with this in the military?

I think your best bet there is to learn how to recognize things they're attracted to and avoid them. A tarp is only keeping out wind and rain, everything else is going to be about site selection.

man, in what unit did you make such origami from that poncho and string? In my experience, most of the guys, if anything, hung it on bungee's.

Don’t get me wrong. I think this was an awesome video. But with all this effort cant you just sleep on the floor and cover yourself with your poncho? Like, literally, lay down on the floor and use your poncho as a blanket. Trust me, I appreciate the physics involved with the knots and how tension can be used in your favor, but, is it all really that necessary??

In general on a bugout move, no. Natural shelter would be the best. However there is the possibilty of getting caught by a sudden rainstorm with no natural shelter available.

For a good sleep on a clear night? No. If it's raining you'll want to set it up so you don't have to worry about it sliding off while you sleep. The vertical room can be nice too, especially if you're not in a bug out situation. Having somewhere dry to sit, cook, clean your tools etc is nice
