This Works! Ridgeline setup for One Tigris Mesh Tent and Aquaquest Safari Tarp (Give this a try) 

Oh man! This is a gorgeous location, reminds me of a scene in Jurassic Park! I keep expecting a velociraptor to come charging out of the background! 😅 🤣

Nicely done, I have also got myself the items to make this same setup but haven’t done it yet. Perfect timing 👍🇨🇦

Thats a sweet set-up! Nice to try that subscriber suggestion & give them credit.

I did this exact same thing a few weeks ago! It works great. Used the poles for porch mode also. Worked great in the rain. (Dropped a corner lower to prevent pooling.) I used some mini carabiners for the tent to prussic on the ridge line and skipped them all together for the tarp. I use a taught line hitch to tighten the tarp. Super effective.

Great setup

I'm happy that you tried my tip :D You know, as long as it's good for you, then everything is OK. I have two more tips to make it even better. A) Use a small wood toggle instead of a carbiner. The pressure will be split better on the loop than the tiny edge from the carbiner. And it's also lighter. B) For the poles. You have one cord attaching it, right? Now what is THE strongest shape in the world? A circle/bubble, right? And what is the second strongest? A triangle. That's why most metallic trusts with triangles. Now, let's apply this to your setup. Your actual setup is *---- *=pole --=cordage So let's do *< this instead. Here's how to do it: I) right now, your rope is in line with the loop from the tarp, right? So let's move it either to the right or left. Your choice. Once done, it'll be wobbly and that's ok, we'll fix that next. II) take a second rope and attach it to the pole either with a bowline or a clove hitch, then take the other end to the ground ans stake it so you'll have a triangle with the other rope. The thing is to have TWO cords going to the top of your pole, and those poles making a V. So the top of your triangle is the pole where the two ropes meets, and the bottom of the triangle is on the ground and formed by the two cords stakes wide appart. Want something ever way more cool? You can do the same without any trees. Here's how. Some will set like this ----*--------*---- ---- is the cordage going to the ground * is the trekking pole ------- cordage going from a pole to the other * trekking pole ---- cordage to the ground. Everything is in-line and it's not the best. For my setup you need 3 ropes. One long one and two forter ones. a) set your tent b) stake a pole at each ends (length wise) c) take the longest rope and make a clove hitch on the right pole, making sure to leave enouch length so it can reach the ground at an angle, not straight! d) go to the other pole and do the same e) now, take the left over rope from the left and stake it at an angle to the RIGHT f) do the same on the other end but on the LEFT So you'll have rope starting form the ground on the left, going to the trekking pole, then straight over the tent to the 2nd trekking pole and then going right to the ground. Now let's secure that. g) take a shorter length of rope, make a bowline then pass that loop on top of the pole. This way, the bowline is on top of the already set rope so it can't slip down. Magic! f) take the remaining rope and stake it at the opposite angle from the one already staked it has to be like this >*--- h) do the same on the other end. So the result will be: >*------*< instead of ---*------*--- i) Now, place your tarp on top of the highly secured ridgeline and use prussik knots to make it tight j) add a rope at each corner of your tarp and stake them at an angle. True story: I once knew I'd be on rocky ground and it was going to be very windy that day. So first, I brought extra long and heavy duty metallic stakes. Second, I did the above mentioned setup and made sure the ridgeline was almost flush with the tent and set everything tight. i also used small bungee cords to stake the tarp so it'll have a slack under windy condition instead of tearing appart my tarp. Then I left for a hike. On my way back, the weather got real bad. I mean REAL BAD! Extremely high winds. I met few people camping at the same spot and all were in despair because their tents got ripped appart. But.... not mine! My setup saved the day and my tent & tarp were the only one who performed 100% that day. P.S. I'm going to make that setup, take pictures and email them to you

Use smaller tarps to make walls if needed . I have the same tent with a wider tarp & a smaller tarp to block 1 end if needed then I can pull the opposite corners down to make another door / wall

I am on a mission to try and watch one of your videos each day. And how I loved this one ! The scenery is absolutely stunning ! Lush and wild. Your tent and tarp set-up is outstanding. I truly enjoyed your narration which is superbly done. You are very precise in your filming and in explaining each point that would help the viewer. Professional, yet personable. I am very impressed with everything about your channel. Can't wait to dig in further. One little question Natureman....Can I move into that tent ?? Love those woods !! 😁🌳🌲🌿🏕🌞

Nicely done mate, that's a really nice set up , atb 🏕 👍
