It sure is nice when it's pouring to pop out the shelter and fire up the stove for some hot tea while waiting out the weather.
A simple tarp works for sure but I prefer a fully enclosed shelter while floorless but anything that that gets you out of the rain is a plus
Guess I should have elaborated a bit more on my shelter setup a bit more; I carry a Hilleberg tent in addition to that tarp. I just set the tarp up really quickly if it starts to rain hard enough in order to stay reasonably dry and not get in a sticky situation. Tent gets setup when a good camp spot is found at an appropriate time!
OP- sorry for the hijack!
