Protection from the elements is very important especially while backcountry camping. So, knowing how to setup a tarp in any situation is an asset.

In this video, I'll show you how i've setup a tarp over a picnic table in the backcountry. What's special is that this campsite is located on rocky ground so the standard method of using ground stakes is not possible.
