Backpacking Rain Fly

TJ Provost Survival Camping Gear, Survival Gear, Wet Weather Survival Gear

This Lightweight Backpacking Rain Fly is a year round piece of gear. Its a sun shade, its a rain fly, and it blocks the cutting wind in the dead of winter. If you have a smaller cabin, I would stock up on these Lightweight Camping Rain Flies as they let you expand out onto the ground around your cabin while still offering some degree of protection from the elements.

Because this Fly is so light and portable it only makes sense to keep one in your pack. I take one hunting with me as well. Add some branches and I have a nice shelter to sit and weight for the sun to come up so I can pull some ducks out of the air. Yes, I eat them. I don’t believe in shooting anything I don’t eat – at least when it comes to wild animals.

When I hiked a lot I never took a a tent unless it was sub zero temps. I would just bring this Backpacking Rain Fly and a sleeping bag. I never had any issues and it saved me weight and room to carry other gear. Or just more food so I could stay out longer.
