One of the most important things I learned about shelter in the wilderness is that it has to be small enough to contain your body heat, but large enough for you to be comfortable in it. It needs to be in a secluded spot where you can get out without being seen.

How I did it: I had always wanted to do this, and one day it started to rain, and it finally happened.
