A summary
Tensioning tarps for shelters can be achieved with a wide variety of natural materials. This workshop teaches you just how strong and effective some of them can be, with a little bit of know-how. Explore easily-available materials such as bramble, willow and hazel and see how their properties are conducive to incredibly effective and robust outcomes. Whether your tarp is for a teddy or for a real-life situation, the flexibility of these materials and skills will give you flexibility in your teaching.
About your mentors
Dave Watson
Bushcraft Trainer, Mentor and Consultant
Since 1995 I have been training people in Bushcraft and Survival and has been instrumental in developing approved standards of practice in conjunction with the Institute for Outdoor Learning (IOL) as well as others. I have the privilege of training and mentoring many up and coming professionals who use the inspiring skills of Bushcraft to equip people of all ages and abilities. To see them come alive with their own discoveries is inspirational and also quite infectious. I am an approved provider of several Bushcraft courses through the IOL and also a senior assessor for these.
