Thanks for your responses. I'm erring on the side of leaving my tent outside my BoB, and use the tent for leisure activities.
However my skills useing a tarp are somewhat limited, and I won't rate any structure I could create against a winter storm.(Murphys law states that if a storm is going to hit, its going to hit while your bugging out!)
Does anyone else have a tent in their BoB? What do you do?
It'll be interesting to see what Tom comes back with.
No Pressure for an anwser Tom....honest! <img src="images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
