Shelter With a Basement

By digging in, a hammock can be utilized for comfort and protection from the elements. Gear can be stored beneath the hammock and the user has a place to hide in the event of a charging Rhino. In addition, the hole can be filled with insulating materials without fear of compression resulting in the loss of loft and ultimately, R value. This, because the user's body weight is supported by the hammock. The end result, a low profile suitable shelter offering better protection from the elements, especially as compared to its island type counterpart.

Not at all. We charge them full price, seniors and rhinos under 12 are admitted free. :)

Excellent....predators are good eating. Armed = TOP of the food chain. Folks considering wandering around unarmed where there be predators, might wish to seek help now....while they can. Everyday brings new incidents of help arriving too late.

Oh, man....I was WAAAAYYY off! I thought I had a good chance at another 30-40 years left!

Throngs of folks insist on inadvertently digging their own graves without giving it the slightest thought. Comparing the potential calamity that COULD befall folks and the numbers that survive dire situations through no skill of their own.....well, wonder no more whether there be guardian angels! We just happen to be in the business of putting the odds of successfully protecting their charges in the angels' favor. :)

Again, we've actually done this. Much larger cover than the hole. Location is boss; properly sloping ground. Want to talk wet gear? Try inadequate overhead cover. Worried about trapping them in a survival situation? Think of it as a corner market and you're shopping for dinner. Unless the "critters" can unzip/unstow your gear, it'll be fine. Rule of 3s; Infestations? Please. Want to talk calories burned? Try keeping warm without adequate insulation below. Key word; option. Don't like? Don't do.

Advertising a single shelter is simply a matter of practicality. EACH person is encouraged to have such gear on or about their person before traveling into the elements. If a group was going out together, they should ALL be equipped similarly. Life happens and persons missing individual equipment are asking for extra problems. Such problems tend to spill over among the group soon after. That's what gear checks are for.

I come from the future.

Everyone is deadly wrong.

The nuclear war won't happen in December. December 21st 2012 9:21pm - that is when the first human steps foot out into the barren world.

The bombs will drop at 1:13pm on October 14th 2012. I'm not able to change the timeline in anyway. But I can save your life at least. Be prepared for fallout, it will block the sun for two months. Make sure you have food, radiation medication - and don't leave your home, also try to make it airtight. Goodbye.
