Camping tomorrow – rain likely?
The forecast predicts rain is on the way.
Are there any ground prepping tricks that might make a difference in making the night more comfortable?
Things like a drainage trench around the uphill side of the tent or raking deep grooves under the floor.
I have a few tarps, a tent and a screen shelter and can even make a “ghetto” wall for the screenhouse with an old shower curtain. I have some extra guy cords and stakes for re-enforcing the tent and shelter.
Anything else that might help?
Trenches are just going to fill up and then over flow. Find even level ground and put down a ground tarp. make sure the corners or edges arent sticking out from under your tent. If its sticking out it`ll collect water and create a pool under your tent.
