Tent Camping Tip Tyvek as a Ground Cloth

By far the best Tent Camping Tip I can give anyone is Tyvek. This versatile protective material is durable, water proof, wind proof and extremely strong and lite weight. Tyvek can be used as a ground cloth, Shelter or emergency sleeping bag or rain poncho. This material only comes in 100 foot rolls from Home Depot and home improvement centers, BUT you can find it on eBay for under $2.00 for a 1 foot by 10 foot cut to your desired length. With a $2.00 bag of grommets you can have light weight multi purpose piece of tent camping gear for under $20.00.
