Putting up a tarp and hammock one handed 1


This is a twelve minute video showing me putting up a tarp and hammock one handed.  Why?  This is the second article I’ve written for The Bushcraft Journal about taking on common bushcraft tasks with my left hand, partly because it helps me think about how I do things, partly to pass on my experiences and partly for fun.  Anyway, take a look at the video, and if you don’t subscribe to The Bushcraft Journal, sign up for it and read the full article.

We put a video together last year which gives a little more detail on putting up a tarp and hammock using both hands; you can view it here. We cover this on our 2 Day Bushcraft Course and our 5 Day Bushcraft Course. You can see loads of photos from both of these courses, and all of our others, on our Facebook page.
