>>1951500>The paracord was at least rated for 650 lbs. Good but this looks like survival mode, save resources and use what nature provides for building i.e. most log cabins in wild are built entirely of wood, logs, sod, hand dowels
>The hatchet is actually fiberglassYes but I've see camp fires melt things you wouldn't believe. it a good axe, i have one but if i was in wood get one that if the handle breaks you could make another. Think everything a a precious resource you life could depend on
>The goal of the tarp was something to rest on while the lean to was under construction - the tire just happened to be there, by some dilapidated deer standJust keep tarp away for the fire
>The fire does feel pretty weak from the shelterLover angle of shelter. fire closer smaller fire
>It was my first attempt at a fire wallwas the wall for heat reflection or wind brake.
For wind depends on the local pattern but good if smoke in your face.
For heat consider rocks, which can act as bed warmers secondary
