This looks too heavy for our use but may trigger some lighter alternative ideas from the myog crowd.
Mar 17, 2015 at 10:00 am #2183440I wonder if that's effective?
Mar 17, 2015 at 10:42 am #2183451How about just a mylar blanket. For a more rigid body use a sleeping pad…. If it's not to risky.

That's why you have to find a left handed smoke shifter. Its the first thing a new scout needs to find at his first campfire. That or stay away from the smoke attractor which is usually your better half :)
