Clearance on emergency shelter at Kathmandu. Cheap at $7 for pickup and weighs only 310 grams. Dimensions 183cm x 250cm, sleeps 2 and comes with 7 metre cord.

Reviews are exceptionally favourable, for example from Big Mac who gave it 5 out of 5 stars -

"Last week I returned from everest, whilst I was in the death zone with my entourage we became trapped by avalanche. The only thing that save all of us was the Emergency Shelter, the shelter saved us by giving us clean water and oxygen rich air. The squad was very tired so the fourteen of us pilled into the shelter. The final heroic act of the shelter was morphing into toboggans for all of us, so we could slide down the mountain. What a great product."

Legendary product, no?

As for me? Great backpack stuffer for an "in-case emergency".

    14 people piled in to a 2 person emergency tent?? Clean water?? Oxygen rich air?? Toboggans for 14 people?? I think low oxygen on Everest made big mac delirious!

      Set one of these up in Sydney and list it on Domain for $1.5 million.

        You'd get $2.5m if you add a few strip LEDs and a solar light ;)

    So it's basically a lightweight tarp with ends sewn together and a piece of rope?

    Reminds me of the time I slept under the stars with nothing but an emergency blanket (aka glorified al foil). Something I will never attempt again.

      To tie between trees to keep the triangular shape. Either that or for easy dragging, or easy relocation during midnight nature stops.

  • Shiny Mew on 19/01/2017 - 12:38

    With the price of housing, general cost of living and few attainable well-paying jobs if you weren't born into the right family, this would actually make a perfect home, especially for younger generations such as myself. Sadly, and inexplicably, they're not legal to live in. :(

    • bhm133 on 19/01/2017 - 13:15

      Move to Melbourne. Flinders Street is where it is at for the moment. No one will move you on. :D.
