Next, Lin Yu'an stacked four spruce logs neatly on the inside of this row of wooden stakes, forming a solid and aesthetically pleasing log wall about forty centimeters off the ground.
Then, he constructed the same structure on the other side of the shelter, in the same manner, before starting to process the edges of the waterproof tarp.
He stretched the lower hem of the waterproof tarp outward, just covering the tops of the two spruce log walls.
Immediately, he used tripwire and carved ground nails, employing the truck driver's tightening technique to pull each attachment point of the waterproof tarp taut, like a drum surface.
An extremely complete A-frame shelter with a solid log wall at the base was built in just over two hours.
But this wasn't the end; the most crucial heating system was yet to be completed.
Lin Yu'an said to the camera, "In the nights of Labrador, a good fire source is more important than a good roof."
