BCUSA 5x7 Tarp as Emergency Shelter

The 5 by 7 Multipurpose Emergency Survival Tarp (MEST) made by Bushcraft USA is a very nice tarp. It is 70D ripstop nylon and weighs 10.5 ounces. Here are some shots of it being used as a shelter. Hope you enjoy the video!

The bcusa tarp would be great tucked into a haversack for those moments one could get caught in a shower. Nice review! Thanks for sharing. John.

I agree and have used it during rain showers! Thanks for watching and your comment!

True point about the cold ground! I should label this video emergency shelter. For regular camping, a light weight tent or hammock is much better. Thanks for watching and your comment.
