A bit of a panic forced tarp setup for very strong winds and rain. I didnt quite think it through but it worked great. The idea with this was that it first needed to work with wind from the south, then from the southwest. I couple of years ago I tried something similar but it didnt work because the roof was to high. For really strong winds it need to be very close to the ground or things will come appart in no time. Clothes is needed though with the close proximity to wind and water. It was 20C out today so no problem but if it had been colder i would have to get in my Carinthia sleeping bag.
