Bright Light Shelter

Information for bushwalkers from bushwalkers

Bushwalking gear and paraphernalia. Electronic gadget topics (inc. GPS, PLB, chargers) belong in the 'Techno Babble' sub-forum.

TIP: The online Bushwalk Inventory System can help bushwalkers with a variety of bushwalk planning tasks, including: Manage which items they take bushwalking so that they do not forget anything they might need, plan meals for their walks, and automatically compile food/fuel shopping lists (lists of consumables) required to make and cook the meals for each walk. It is particularly useful for planning for groups who share food or other items, but is also useful for individual walkers.

Bright Light Shelter

Thu 02 Aug, 2012 9:19 pm

Perhaps someone can guide me in the right direction for a bright coloured light weight min 3x3m tarp/shelter/batwing...
I used to have an ultralight orange one and way back then it came in several bright options but I have forgotten the brand and doubt they still make them.
Now I can only find grey, olive, eucalyptus, brown or camo options. I'm just not finding anything bright.
Does anyone have an old one in good condition they want to sell or where I can find them online?
Can someone custom make one for me?

Cheers
Terra

Please excuse my ignorance but how is orange associated will killing deer? Are they colour blind and orange is visible to other hunters?

I have ordered a tarp from Terra Rosa Gear which will be perfect :)
