* two saplings that are about 6-10 feet from one another
* an area between large trees that is relatively flat. Once there, dig two holes about 12+ inches into the ground and insert two sturdy branches into the holes.
Clear the ground below the support beams until you hit dirt. This will deter bugs that live in the fallen debris from coming into the shelter and biting you.

For winter/fall weather the lower the roof the better, and adding some walls.
Also, some spruce boughs if stacked right will provide better insulation and be water proof if layered in the right direction. Also good bedding/insulation when layered properly.
I really enjoyed it!
Thank you!
