We happened upon this product testimonial recently. It sounds very interesting — those foil “space blankets” in the emergency kit have always seemed rather flimsy, and tarps are a trusty camping standby, so why not combine the two?
First let me get this straight, this is not one of those flimsy tin foil emergency blankets. What is it? An all weather space blanket is half tarp and half emergency blanket. On one side it is a tarp that comes in an array of colors. On the other side is a shinny foil – kind of like a durable emergency blanket. Just like the emergency blankets these provide you 90% of your body heat back, and are rain and wind resistant.
What do you think? Is it worth a try?
