Default Camping!!!

So im headed out on a three day hunt in central texas in a few weeks. Been thinking about how im going to set up the campsite. No trailer, no tent. Tarp and bungee cord type shelters. Just wondering what great ideas are out there as far as using your jk as a part of your campsite. I drive a 2010 jk sport. Post pics of campsites!!!!

Someone used their winch cable to a tree to create the main "beam" for their camp tent out of a tarp. I don't have any pics but I've slept on the back seat with all of my atv gear in the back and on the passenger seat for a weekend trip.

Assuming the jeep will stay in place you could run rope from the wheels out to trees and double it back for a quick shelter (albeit a low one).

If you have a 2 dr sleeping in the back is not fun. Like others have said run a rope from the jeep to a tree and use that as the main beam for a tarp. Works great

Bring a cot and stare at the sky while falling asleep.
