Want to know:

6-32. You are improvising a shelter in a rocky forest on a chilly autumn night. You have used your tarp, two tree limbs, and lengths of parachute line to make a simple, low "pup"or tarp-tent. Your shelter "floor" is a quarter-acre sized piece of flat granite that makes up the forest floor. Standing back to admire your work, you realize that it needs a few more touches. You empty your pack at the shelter entrance. Next, you fill the pack with dry leaves. You pour these leaves into the shelter and spread them into a thick mat. You then spread out your empty pack and some of its larger contents (extra plastic, poncho, etc.) into a pallet on top of the leaves. Now satisfied, you crawl into the shelter for a restful sleep. Why did you do what you did with the leaves and pack?
