Hybrid tarp
Posted: Sun Dec 11, 2011 8:12 am
I have been thinking about a hybrid tarp.
I am thinking a taut catenary cut tarp pitch, to avoid loud flapping.
I would like to have reflective material inside perhaps laminated to tyvek, and have the reflective material only on one side and up and over the ridgeline (inside) and down the front side a little.
I would like to be able to pitch the front in a higher position for a smaller fire and in a low position to hold the warmth, once I am tucked in a warm sleeping bag or sleep system.
Maybe I could have two sets of tent pegs, one set of tent pegs for the high pitch and one set of tent pegs for the low pitch, adjusting the lines from inside the warmed up sleeping bag or sleep system?
What do you think?
Has anyone glued the seams of tyvek?
Do you think I could laminate mylar reflective sheeting to tyvek?
