Podcast - Modern Outdoor Survival

COVER

:: sheltering from the elements ::

5th July 2021

Spending prolonged periods of time outdoors inevitably leads to a need for shelter, whether from rain, wind or even sun. In this episode we discuss different shelter options for both short and longer term usage.

Talking points include how there isn’t one ‘best’ shelter, as factors are extremely changeable the world over, not to mention the personal preferences when it comes to tents, tarps, hammocks and sleeping simply on the ground.

We go over other forms of shelter which should be taken advantage of, if the need arises, and also about planning ahead so that there is always the safety of shelter close to hand.
