The diagonal here is 121". Add 8% and you get 131". That's your pole length.

On a different note, good on you for making a video that has a USMC tarp configuration set up, as it seems no monkey has done a video about just using a issued tarp like this. I do have a new UCP one love it and it does blend very well with most of the aired enviro's I camp in believe it or not.

Great vid thanks for sharing, I'm sure on the old Alpha tent webpage there was a setup using this tarp but it got removed years ago. Thought i was going mad, I have searched the web high and low to find the images of it. Luckily I found your vid.

Finally, someone has done it with a tarp, rather than the poncho. Thank you. I am very interested in how well it served you on a camping trip. Where did you get the long poles, the correct length? How much do they weigh? Is it possible to get titanium poles? Have you gone camping with it? Texas

Papa Jeff hi, more info in the description, not sure on the weight of the poles, maybe around a pound for the pair? Haven’t tried out yet in the wild. The heat doesn’t quit down here lol.

Great video showing a perfect idea. Which one do you prefer, the poncho type or the tarp type ? I just think the poncho will give much more ventilation. And could you tell me the height of it ?

In warm hot humid climates, its easier to just get wet. Wear quick dry clothes. Swim trunks. Keep your feet dry- change socks. Yea, pretty easy.

I actually followed your measurements for the poncho and it came out great! So thank you for that. I have a question for you regarding the tarp version. I did this set up as well and the construction of it seems to be a little squishier than the poncho. Did this happen to you too?
@danpass12
@danpass12 4 года назад
Yes, as the poles are longer and the material heavier. These poles are 8.5mm and the link in the description to the poles has an option for thicker poles, the 16ft 3" and the 20ft poles show them as being 9.5mm diameter. I'll be trying those one day lol

6 years in the cold rain with nothing but that stupid tarp called a poncho that can't even be worn as a poncho and you show me this now? I just sat here with my mouth gaped enough to take the proverbial green weenie for like 10 minutes in shock when you made a perfect little shelter out of that thing in like a minute.

Suggest a quick preview of the complete tarp setup before you get into the detail. Hard to follow without knowing what the outcome envisioned by you will be.
