Nothing in a sur vival situation is ever perfect, especially when you’re talking about a winter shelter, and particularly if it’s not your first choice for accommodations. It will either be too small, too large, too cold or there will be something else that makes it less than ideal. The list can go on and on. Most of the time y ou will need to constantly build upon and improve the shelter you have to make it fit y our needs, especially if it has to evolve with the situ ation. You may never have just what you need so you will need to improvise and tweak as you go and play the hand that has been de alt to you. If moving to a better space isn’t possible, all you can do is to be as prepared as much as possible where you are and hope for the best.
