Insulating A Dome Tent

The video is one of those "occupy" freaks. Similar to the Occupy Wall Street hippies.. Lol. I wouldn't trust anything from those goofballs. The tarp is right against the tent and will trap condensation. A good bed roll or sleeping bag with some insulation under you will work. Of course some good base layers for you as well. I you want to use a tarp to keep snow off you need to tie it off to some trees or poles ( trees are stronger). Make sure it is angled down away from the entry point so the snow rolls off it. With a good vapor barrier/ ground tarp and a bed roll you will be warm. Getting up in the AM is another story.. Hope this helps
