>>1173138> he's actually homeless> sounds exactly like the line I would have pitched to /outBiggest problem is going to be covering yourself because you're going to need at least 2 standard (40F) sleeping bags (opened up not hot pocket), plus another blanket of some kind on top of them. And thats for 15F sorta weather without wind.
Homeless Solution for a mat from scrounged materials:
* Lay 2" partially decayed sticks out in the leaves.
* Lay a ruined inflatable mattress on top of it (found due to it having a hole in it probably).
* Lay a Comforter over it.
As a homeless person dont bother carrying these things with you during the day, just leave them out in the woods near where you camp. To prevent them being stolen roll your comforter up in a couple trash bags and find a place to stash it. If you have collected any spare backpacks from donations or such put it in there to keep the animals from playing with the plastic (its okay if the backpack gets wet as long as the bags dont have holes in them).
Basically roll up the (un)inflatable mattress and take it and the comforter over to some fallen tree or bushes and hide them somewhere under or around it.
If you havent GetGud at camouflage yet go to Walmart and look for their fleece throws, they've usually got a good deal on them for $2.50 but ive seen them go up to $6 before.
> you're looking for the one with the cheetah spots on itBest fucking camouflage ive seen for multi-environment and multi-seasonal. And it will stand up to several years of all weather exposure too. Pic related. Its not a Tarp so its not going to stop water... its the kinda thing you put over your flaming orange shit so that nobody can see it. And if it rains it might well mat this thing down and help to make sure your tarps dont blow all over the damn place.
