btw i tried this out today walking around a bit. it definitely works well enough to use it during rain storms. keeps the fronts of my thighs dry, which is all i can ask for when i'm hiking...

Hey brother,
What does it look like and where did you get it? Sounds neat. Danrum
it's this - the grizz beak:

then look back on 1st page to see how i turned it into a rain wrap
Innovative! How high is the bottom in back?
not very much coverage on the back. minimal. however i figure with my pack providing a ledge/roof for my back, i shouldn't need nearly as much. it may come down 1/3 of the thigh. like i said, i don't think it will work nearly as well as zpack's cloud kilt, or ULA's rain wrap. however for being a piece of gear that i'm carry anyway, in the UL swing of multi-purpose items, i think this is a hit for me
Yeah man, that's a pretty good idea
It's only an addiction if you're trying to quit
Grab a second grizz beak and go back the other way. Then you'll have doors for either end of your tarp, and a 'kilt' that covers your front and your back. Throw on a little omni tape and the whole thing will be quite secure.
