Hi, all. I'm looking for some input on what type of emergency shelter to carry in the trunk of my car. I have a tent right now (a Eureka Backcountry 2), which is a nice little tent; although a bit “cool” when it’s cold outside (It is billed as a “three-season tent”). I was thinking a tarp or a lean-to might be a better choice. My thinking is with the lean-to, I can have a reflector fire going, radiating heat into the lean-to. That can't be done with a tent. The only time I can think of when a tent would be a better choice would be when there are a lot of flies, gnats and such. <br>I was thinking of one of the Whelen or Forester types of lean-tos, which is basically a lean-to that has sides on it. Weight isn’t much of a factor, since it will be kept in the trunk of the car (along with a sleeping bag, blankets, extra clothes, etc.). Come to think of it, all I need now is a small fridge to keep the beer in, and a GPS and a cell phone so I can give the pizza delivery guy directions! I really shouldn’t make it too comfortable; if someone tries to “rescue” me, I may refuse to go back with them. :-)<br>
