[Philmont]: Space Blankets

  <<At Autumn Adventure 2005, I used the Space blanket as an outer groundcloth on my Zeus 2 and went without an inner groundcloth. It is that rugged. ( I am not describing the Space "rescue blanket" here-the one that can be carried in a shirt pocket. I have no idea about whether that product can ever be folded up again to that size or about its durability). The product I mean is called the All Weather Blanket.>>
   
  Back in the 1970's Space Blankets were all the rage with Scouts. Everyone in the troop had one and used it for multiple tasks including the described above use. They work. They're tough plus they reflect radiant energy if you are smart enough to figure out which way to reflect it to your benefit.
