Howdy Folks, Water is an absolute necessity when wild camping or bushcrafting. Finding water sources for potable water can be a challenge at times. If you know you are likely to be camping in the rain, you can build a simple structure to capture and contain rainwater. This technique takes only minutes to set up and only requires a tarp, cordage, and 55-gallon bin liners. With good rainfall, you have the potential of containing 30 gallons of rainwater. Having this water source in your camp makes it incredibly convenient for everyone you may be camping with. When you are ready to move on the materials can be collected and packed away in minutes, ready for you to use in your next camp.
