I'm a big poncho fan. I cycle a lot and get caught in the rain more often than I like. Poncho and cycling go very well together.

[@meeshmeeshelle6326]

I am SO GLAD you made this video. 1) The Plow Point/Flying V/Wedge is my favorite tarp configuration and I love being outside in the rain. So cleansing and peaceful. 2) )For contributing to the community. 3) Quashing the naysayers 4)Inspiring others to get outside & try new ideas. After your 1st video on this, I noticed a lot of disbelievers claiming it was a highly edited video & an impossible feat so I did what any sane rational person would do & replicated your video outside in my yard. Nope, not impossible at all. Quite easy actually. Inspired, upgraded my poncho to a Wilderness Innovations Survival Poncho & keep my cordage & stakes in the included reservoir for them. I bought a good bug net (bcs where I live they chew on you year round) and when combined with my 9 x 5 pocket tarp & bedroll, I have a complete minimalist shelter system. Thank you… as always, for producing such useful & inspirational content.Keep m’coming! 🙌🏼

[@Markus_321go]

Rain jacket guy here. Alll my bags usually contain one emergency poncho per person though. Because it's so easy and lightweight it would be dumb not to carry them. Nice setup, Jason.👍🏻

[@chris1638]

This is the best poncho shelter build and info that I’ve ever watched.

[@maxspears6030]

Thank you for blessing We the People with this channel. Finding your media today was right on time. Much appreciate you being here. 🙏🏽💜💯

[@SurvivalDispatch]

You are very welcome!!

[@Q-BinTom]

Poncho was my go to shelter for a very, very long time as a knuckle dragger. Get me dry for the most part, and out of the elements with a minimum weight and footprint.

[@Occupuyourspine]

Slick moves mister and thanks for the comments on rain gear too. I keep a plastic pocket single use poncho handy. if Ineed to hand the real poncho in the rain. glad I saw this. 🤠

[@Occupuyourspine]

I liked viking brand rain coat and pants and fast dry rubber boots.and hat

[@richarddiss1643]

AWESOME! "The bigger the cushion the better the pushing Franck Zappa" 🤣👍🙏

[@PapajosTraders]

Good trick right there....I like it! I am also a fan of ponchos and tall boots. Wore the Muck boots for years but recently the quality has taken a nosedive! (what happens apparently when you sell out to China). Anyhow, I now am wearing the 'Dryshod' boot. Very pleased with these and when it's really crappy cold and wet out it's also my primary hiking footwear. I laugh at mud, muck and small streams as they are no problem with the proper footwear. And they are my winter hiking snow boots as well. I just carry extra dry insoles and change them out as they get damp from sweat.

[@pulitz09]

I like your other video on this set up, and appreciate this more detailed look at it!

[@SurvivalDispatch]

Awesome, thank you!

[@markgelinas8114]

I always liked the plough point or coronet. Both work well and the coroner has the benefit of folding under and making a double thick ground cloth. I prefer a tarp only because it can be configured in so many different ways. The poncho I keep wearing if only to have that extra protection from the elements.

[@FueltheFires]

The voice of experience right here!

[@lisaholtzclaw4947]

"More Cushin for the pushin"🤣🤣😂I haven't heard that in a long time. Thanks for the information and laugh.

[@SurvivalDispatch]

Any time!

[@blueridgerealtor]

You’re such a good teacher.

[@11ccom]

Thanks for keeping us up to date. Maybe a 1 minute "Prep now" segment on each episode for us.

[@landonhall6444]

I use an emergency poncho (Mylar on one side/green on the other) for rain gear. A 6x6 shower curtain liner for shelter. A Mylar lined emergency bivy to sleep in (opened up on one side to make it breathable). Total cost was under 10 bucks. Bivys and ponchos can be purchased in bulk for about 4 bucks each and the shower liner came from the dollar store. Not a robust long term solution, but it will get you through in a pinch. Love your stuff Jason.

[@Krazyfaceoldman]

Survival Theory did a similar video a few years ago. I use an old school military poncho the heavy rubber kind like I was issued when I was in the sea bees

[@chris1638]

That actually looks comfortable considering what you’re using

[@bradwilson7514]

Good Video. Staying dry is always the key

[@brucehillbillybarthalow3786]

Dude that's Awesome!!! I'd definitely use this setup!!! Thank you for sharing this.

[@SurvivalDispatch]

You bet!

[@thomasoverton7131]

Another awesome video Jason. Thanks for sharing brother 👍

[@MrDkgio]

I have a goretex jacket, if your moving you get sweat through, I only ever used it once on the move, it’s ok for camp tasks, if I’m moving any distance the poncho is the way to go.

[@anniereddj]

Such a cool method! Love it! Thank you!

[@charlessalmond7076]

Always like poncho set ups. Good info sir.👍

[@SurvivalDispatch]

Thanks 👍

[@Medictrent]

I remember you doing this one before. I haven't tried it a couple of times. My little boy stole the shelter when I was finished.

[@asmith7876]

Or carry TWO ponchos! 😂 Love my poncho!

[@ferebeefamily]

Thank you Jason for the video.

[@johnburgin7478]

Pretty sure it was your video I came across a good while back . One of my favorites . Thanks for sharing it again

[@SurvivalDispatch]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@sheilagaleano365]

Love it and all your videos. Thank you, as always : )

[@Mr808islands]

outstanding i have 2 puncho rain shelter. solid.thnk u updating video

[@clif4rd1]

Great tips. Thank you, Jason.

[@SurvivalDispatch]

You bet!

[@jessicathompson236]

Because rainy weather is the best.

[@jeffechols5302]

Great job see ya on the next one

[@SurvivalDispatch]

Thanks 👍

[@stevecallaway8457]

Well done

[@MrDkgio]

In the past I’ve run a ridge line between 2 trees, then A framed or lean to, requires some squirming but it’s doable. German army sleep mat unfolds nicely, great moisture barrier and a little insulation.

[@smokeeater8387]

Thinking you could find a branch that could double as a leaf rake and rake a huge pile of leaves by the tree behind you with the downed log. Then spread the poncho and reach out the side with your stick and pile the leaves on the side of your poncho shelter for a little insulation. I’m no expert though but it works for squirrels😂👍🇺🇸

[@rolandhillmann6503]

Great Poncho Skill. Thx Alternative to Gore tex shoes ,Seal Skin Socks

[@elevatorman7750]

Great video brother

[@SurvivalDispatch]

Much appreciated

[@seedy-waney-bonnie4906]

Where I was at in the wilderness, we would 2 weeks poring down rain with no let up, that was our rainy season, then came Thanksgiving, by then we would be snowed in for the winter.

[@seedy-waney-bonnie4906]

I carry a poncho but also always a tarp also.

[@SurvivalDispatch]

Smart!

[@bc4yt]

I like it. Take a spare poncho, and then you have a full cover shelter, or an extra poncho if somebody else needs one?

[@SurvivalDispatch]

Smart!!

[@xderiwx]

This was killer, thanks for the instruction! I have a couple questions if you don’t mind. 1) Is a poncho always part of your kit/carry even if you’re traveling, going to town or in urban environments or only if you know you’re going to be in the woods? 2) If you didn’t carry the tent stakes, how exactly would you go about staking the corners down with stakes you made? Would extra cordage beyond what you leave looped on the grommets be needed? Thank you!👍🏻

[@SurvivalDispatch]

Yes. I pretty much always take a poncho with me wherever I go. Several in my truck and one in every pack. Wooden tent stakes are super simple. Cut and carve something that looks like a pencil. Maybe 8 inches or so long and about 1/2 to 1 inch thick. The loops of cordage are perfect for securing the corners of the poncho to them.

[@xderiwx]

@@SurvivalDispatch Thanks for the reply! This video has me rethinking my bag/carry and I'm looking at adding in a poncho, since it's multipurpose and fairly small and light like you mentioned. 👍🏻 My area rains fairly often but is also fairly warm so carrying something like this would cut down a lot on the bulk of an extra jacket or hoodie.

[@dog-gone-it5944]

Your dog needs a poncho!😂

[@SurvivalDispatch]

Can we call it a poocho?

[@bc4yt]

Or is it a "pawncho"? 😂🤔

[@mehmetkupeli2073]

Great video! Where is Allan Kay?

[@rajibjoshi9647]

I don't mind getting wet ( don't like pancho but I do carry towel and extra dry clothes/socks/hat/jacket and you can always dry front of fire I never worry about sweating or rain you have options ex. change / dry clothes sit front of fire

[@JenniferA886]

👍👍👍

[@exrhodie1234]

Great video. Just interested as to which brand of poncho it was you were using. I got one off Amazon and it was a really thick, stiff material so a big disappointment.

[@SurvivalDispatch]

Helikon

[@LanceHanan]

Does the sol bivy keep you warm?

[@bushcraftchip]

WHERE CAN i GET ONE OF THOSE SPIDER HATS YOU WEAR? tHEY ARE BADASS!!! THANK YOU!!!!

[@SurvivalDispatch]

TRC Outdoors. My favorite hat!

[@yoongiwifeinthenextlife]

The poncho is such a small shelter. Why not just keep wearing it? And where was your backpack? I didn’t see it under the shelter.

[@SurvivalDispatch]

It’s hard to lay down and stay dry while wearing a poncho. This video was to demonstrate how to set up the shelter. I did not need additional equipment for that. But, my pack can fit under the poncho with me in it.

[@lil_Marie_Red]

there is another video where u use 2 ponchos and make a full setup. I like Jason's version. version.

[@kennethwilson8633]

Or you can wear it and sleep against the tree while you keep your backside dry…Have fun stay safe.

[@kennedymcleod1479]

Definitely something to lie on.

[@fearthebeard.outdoors1189]

If it ain't raining you ain't training choas from Scotland OUT

[@tiagomello]

What if it is windy, too?

[@SurvivalDispatch]

You can always drop all 4 corners down to the ground.

[@shenlonggohan]

I don't like wearing a poncho, feel exposed/unprotected, but I'm too lazy to carry a tarp AND a rain coat. So I pack the poncho.

[@SurvivalDispatch]

Ha! I like the way you operate!

[@ulperformance4087]

You forgot a ground sheet - you are now wet.

[@badger31738]

That’s a good idea, but you laid down onto the wet ground.

[@yoongiwifeinthenextlife]

Hey, would be great if you could add chapters to your videos

[@SurvivalDispatch]

What are you interested in seeing in addition to this video?

[@shadowscout9872]

If I were to tie loops on the corners of my poncho I guarantee they would catch on a branch or briar and I wouldn't be wearing a poncho anymore or I would be face down in the dirt or worse.

[@SurvivalDispatch]

Well I would suggest you don’t do that. I haven’t had too many issues.

[@paulmclaughlin808]

I like to shut up. But I still think i'd rather carry some kind of tarp lightweight 10 by 10. They're only a pound not that happy to carry

[@MrDkgio]

Damn I only use slip on shoes, so this won’t work for me 😜😂 I’m joking but I do know an adult male who cannot tie shoelaces 🤦🏻‍♂️

[@SurvivalDispatch]

Haha!!!

[@MrCdawson17]

Stay dry as much as possible- lays on the ground once his poncho is set up 🤦‍♂️

[@SurvivalDispatch]

Good one. Got me.

[@MrCdawson17]

@@SurvivalDispatch 😂😂😂 I could do with a poncho like that. I do have one. Don’t know if it has the rings in like yours though.

[@outdoor-suedost]

Hi Jason! Thanks for showing this cool trick👌. I have to try and practise it. All the best from Austria 🇦🇹🤠👍🏕️🔥
