Pack & Paddle - Winter Super Shelter
In this edition of "Pack & Paddle", Scott Oeth talks about the "Winter Super Shelter". According to Scott, "A legendary Canadian survival instructor, Mors Kochanski, developed signigicant improvements on the classic lean-to shelter. He added a covering of a thin piece of clear plastic sheeting to create a protective bubble, added a mylar space blanket to the interior sloped wall to reflect heat back down onto the occupant, and, it is ideally combined with a raised bed structure to allow warm air from the external fire to circulate up under the occupant. The basic component of this shelter take up little more space than a water bottle, yet it can be an absolute life saver in an emergency! The 'Kochanski Super Shelter' can also be used for cold weather camping, or simply to make a fun outside hangout on a cold day".
