- Best Tarp Tent Shelter Setup with a 4.5 x 3 Metre DD XL Tarp, Has a Groundsheet!
Step by Step Tutorial on how to set up the Tarp!
In my opinion, this is the best tarp setup using the rectangular 4.5 x 3 metre tarp, creates a huge space with maximum coverage, and best of all has a groundsheet! Using only 1 trekking pole or stick, and 7 pegs or sticks...

I was a nomad in the 80s and raced my nova across the country for food and gas and this was the tarp setup I used when I found a wooded area. Haven't seen anybody do this setup in ages. Thanks for sharing this man. Brought back some good memories.
Wow! No problem! And thankyou for sharing your story, very intriguing 💪❤️
I'm a big Chevy fan add an El Camino with a Chevelle front end always wanted A nova I had Edelbrock RPM series camel hump heads roller rocker rocker arms Comp Cam MSD ignition, high-rise manifold, flowtech headers, Cactus Radiator Summit Racing gear rims a stall converter on my t 400 automatic transmission an electric fuel pump some other little things here and there lighter weight But Metal quarter panels Hood there was so much fun
I'm shocked how easy it actually is to build this. I was on the fence between buying a 2-person tent or a 4.5x3m tarp. I'm getting the tarp for sure now!
Never seen a tarp tent set up with a rectangular tarp. Darned nice!
I used your instructions to make a tarp tent on a 3 nite hike and it worked flawlessly. The flaps can be carabinered together instead of staked back to keep the cold out too.
Love this. Thanks for sharing. And your dog is dem cute. Thanks for including him.
This guide to be seen of hiw to avoid cost in purchase of expensive thing is a life saving one... Great video.... 👏👏👏👏👏
Good video well explained, I could listen to this guy speak all day , to me he has a similar voice to John Lennon when he spoke.
This is one heck of a set up.
Awsome! Thanks :) Greetings from Poland!
Great setup!! I’m trying that as soon as the snow melts!!
Great video, so well explained. Thanks for sharing.
ATB, Dave 👍
Nice demo and a good configuration brother! Thanks for sharing! Definitely a thumbs up!
Wow. Thank you. Been looking for this for ages. Much appreciated. 👍😊
Best tarp shelter i've looked at
Nice job there! Thank you, I'm always looking for new ways to set up my tarp✌️
Great video, just what I needed to see thanks for that will help me on my next bike trip
Thank you for going into details and showing where to stake it down
Awesome setup.
Great video, can’t wait to test it out in the field 👍🏻🌲
Thanks buddy, hope it all goes well for you... Very quick and easy setup 👍🏕️ regards Ben..
Just put this up in my garden in sunny Chesterfield. Great video. Thanks
Super good video! I feel like I can do this. Headed to buy a tarp!! Thanks for sharing.
Perfect! Great tutorial! Subscribed!
Excellent work friend👍
Brilliant mate 👍
Nicely presented and subscribed 👍🏼👍🏼
Thats wonderful 👍🏼 I cant believe how simple set up this is yet I couldn't see it 😫 Thanks.
Best explanations on how to set a tarptent on UA-cam , great ! Thanks !
Thanks buddy, glad to help! Kind regards Ben
Harika 👏 bunu kesinlikle deneyeceğim. Türkiye'den selamlar 🤚🇹🇷
Thanks so much for doing this video, its excellent. I bought a 4.5 x 3 meter tarp from DD a while ago and have not found a video like this one that does treking sticks for this size tarp. Cheers.
Very good info thanks!
the best presentation
Well done. Thanks!
No problem, always good to share the knowledge 💪🏕️ regards Ben
Excellent buddy
Nice im going to try this this afternoon
Very nice 👍
Nice one bro!
Ah man what have you done I've ordered another tarp!!! Love the groundsheet though gotta be done sometimes. The Mrs will be much happier now 😄 👍 great video 👊
Great tutorial video thanks for sharing im definitely getting one of those tarps. Keep up the good work brother 👍
Cheers buddy, glad it helped. Regards Ben
It's beautiful
Nice video.
I enjoyed this. Thanks for sharing. For me, looks like quick and easy best option. I may try added hammock fly to cover front opening for sleeping. (I've subscribed)
Thats very impressive
Very nice, going to try this one. Just have to recheck vids on knots😁
Muy bien ese refugio, saludos desde México.
Nice 😀! Not gonna lie, this is way better than the Army ground sheet/ hooch shelter method I was taught elsewhere. No need for 2 trees! 😀.
Nice 1 mate will try that out .... perfect - just subbed
Atb 👍🏽
You could leave the bottom unpegged , put your pack/boots/etc. in front of the Pole and pull the tarp up over it for more protection in case of rain. Nice set up.
There are so many options with a tarp and this was the best I've seen. You also explained very clearly, what is good for me because I am thick haha. I'm probably going to try this today. 😊
🇫🇷👍Vraiment TRÈS Génial cette configuration
Cela nécessite beaucoup de sardines apparemment
Mais à la fin c'est nickel comme abris !!! 👍👍😍😉🙂😃😃👍👍
Good show thanks
Love it!
Good... vidio brother...
Outstanding!
I have a 5x5 tarp, a huge one. I wonder if it's works the same. Thanks
Nice job thank you
No problem, hope it comes in handy for you, regards WW
Very nice
Bloody ripped mate....well done....I live in the tropics in Northern Australia and am ambiguous as to the value of a tarp type set up because of the mosquito issue we have here.....but this was good nonetheless!
It's a great setup to use nice job mate atvb jimmy 😎😎
It sure is mate, and thankyou, same to you 👍👍
Nice. One sir
it's verry good.👍👍👍
This is great. I like using my tarp, but did not know how to build a tent in this manner. Your instructions are spot-on. I keep hoping your sub's start adding up. Your video's are as good as other's with thousands of subscriptions. Take it easy. From Colorado, Roger.
Thanks, it's amazing what you can do with such a simple thing, I've got some other setups I will show on future vids! And although more subs would be nice, I'm not in it for the money, I'm in it for the love of the outdoors and as a kind of video diary 📹❤️ thankyou for your kind words. Regards WW
@@WilkoWild "And although more subs would be nice, I'm not in it for the money, I'm in it for the love of the outdoors". You are in it for the right reasons my friend. Be well.
Same to you my friend ⛺💪
That's awesome! I am, however, concerned with the tip of the trekking pole directly on the tarp floor. Shouldn't there be a folded sock or something to keep the tip from contact and possible tarp damage?
A tennis ball would sort that out....
Good job
Good point!! 👍
it’s on th eground
@@NikosAnimals watch further into the video, he places the pointy end onto the floor of the tarp to extend floor space. A folded sock, or even a couple pieces of bark, would fix a possible hole in the tarp.
Hello brother, I from Indonesia I like your vidios🔥💯
Genious ❤
nice great 👌
Great setup. Just one question... does the base of the trecking pole not puncture the tarp?
Thanks bro
I like your design.
Would it work to have two thirds of the length on top.
One third, and the front inside corners, as ground sheet?
Giving more space overall. While not extending out into the rain.
Thats a great Idea mate. Seen loads TARP TENT with the 3x3 but never with the bigger one. I suspect you've just forced me to buy a bigger tarp. Thanks for the upload. Subbed! Greetings from Ibiza.
Hiya David, glad it's helped matey, and haha sorry about that 😂 atb Ben
Nice vid.. I'd like to see if this setup could be adjusted in some way could be altered, so the side flaps ( where you came into second tie out)...could be drawn together when wanted to form some kind of door covering...just carabineer clip them. I'm using the DD M Tarp so bit smaller
Yes I've had a play around and can get it near enough closed whilst keeping everything else taught 👍 kind regards Ben
@@WilkoWild I've done the pyramid, where you get a large loose flap...so I imagine a hybrid between the two will get there. Cheers. Subbed
I would think so buddy there's always a way! 💪😂
We did this Saturday night but with a 3mx2.6m tarp
Thx for you
Спасибо за четкий рассказ 👍
Does your pole have some sort of rubber tip? Mine are sharp and would pierce the ground sheet.
Mantap 👍
Enjoyed the video. Just one question, what did you do about the hole your walking pole made in your tarp/groundsheet ?
Hiya, it never puts a hole in the tarp, these tarps are very strong. My pole doesn't have a spikey end it's like a rubber foot on it which helps. Cheers
Sorry fella. Didn't notice the foot on your pole. Great video though.
A tennis ball with a slit in it for the end of the centre pole, to avoid breaking the canvas maybe ?
which tarp size do you like best?
I want to make a tent for beach use with two canvas tarps
What would you recommend
Would 3x3 still work the same?
how you cover the door when the rains coming brother?
Wonder if I can squish one of those and a hammock into a rocket pouch...
There is a way to use a tarp and fully enclose the tarp. Three sides.
I'd try this when I get my tarp, noob question. How's the condensation on this?
Yes, good point, I too would like to know if there are any condensation issues with tarp set ups.
@@gordonmonaghan133 I use my tarp in this exact configuration, not condensation since the opening allows for plenty of ventilation
👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Keep it taught
where can i find this canvas
what is the matirial of the tent clothe
I love this set up but I paid way to much money for my tarp to use it as a ground sheet.
howvmich
anyway to make this more insect proof?
Only modification I'd make is to move the starting points back a bit either to the next holes or use clips to go about halfway, this then pulls back excess ground sheet while creating more space and more material to close it up further. But you may be left with 50% floor, which is almost as good as no floor
What size is a 4.5 x3 tarp
In metres buddy 👍
About 10’ x 15’.
Ummmm 4.5 x 3....??????????????
Super video und über ein Abo von dir würde ich mich sehr freuen wenn du mir auch was schreiben würdest
Vielen Dank für Ihre freundlichen Worte und Ihre Unterstützung. Ich werde mir Ihre ansehen. Mit freundlichen Grüßen WW
@@WilkoWild vielen Dank
If you peg the 2 ground sheet corners to the side middle attachment points and tie some 550 cord to the center attachment point of the floor to the center of the hood, you can hoist the floor up to make a door with a good seal. I have also added a screen in the same attachment points and make a screen door. like this - ua-cam.com/video/RuedJOCraFg/v-deo.html
And put a pair of socks over the stick or what ever you use to prop the tarp with.
Thanks for the link.
I find too much condensation with this
Do you REALLY?!?
@@tiltil9442 erm...YES!!! Don't believe me?
@@tiltil9442 any of the pitches where the edges touch the ground I get too much. When sides are tucked under to make floor I get even more... So yes REALLY!
Why TF would somebody come on here to lie about getting condensation? What a stupid question.
Who ever reading this I pray you are happy and get extremely successful in life...
Cool tarp setup, but no good for Australia, where you want to keep all the venomous snakes and spiders out of your tent. Also no good for the winter where you want to keep the wind from coming through the door and blowing all the warmth off you.. So, in other words, it's only good for summertime in countries with no ground-dwelling insects, reptiles or curious mammals. So, basically just the UK for two weeks of every year, all with a tarp that packs down larger and heavier than a fully enclosed two-person freestanding tent with bathtub floor, zippered doors and No-see-Um mesh...
I'm sure at a certain point winter conditions are harsh enough to warrant a fully enclosed 4 season tent. Winter is the main time when I use my tarps the most, and i've always done less enclosed shelters than this, so this would be massive protection in comparison to an A frame or asymmetrical lean to which are the types I normally use down to 0F (-17C). I wouldn't want to use a tarp in summer here in MO without a bug net, and definitely not in Australia! You guys have all sorts of nasties, tent for sure in those places.
Why not just buy a tent?
Tent for a same price is about five times heavier, tent which is the same weight is five time expensive
More expensive and it's more weight.
Tent camping and tarp camping are different experiences. Both are fine. If you haven't tried both, perhaps you should. Then you could answer your own question.
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Very good info thanks!
Very nice👍
