This article is written assuming you are outdoors with your basha and paracord and want to set it up.

First, locate 2 opposite trees, make sure they are the right distance apart for the amount of cord you have. Lay out your basha sheet and thread the longer ridge line through the loops running across the middle. Fold the sheet in half so the ridgeline is facing up. Tie one end to a tree using the Evenk Overhand Hitch. Now pull the other end of the line as tight as you can and wrap it around the other tree, then tie it off by going under the ridgeline and back through over the top the loop you created. Pull tight.

Now, tie the guy lines to each corner of the basha. Wrap the loose end halfway around your thigh and do the
Prusik knot and tie off. You should now be able to move the knot up and down the line creating a smaller/bigger loop to be placed over a wooden peg. Do this for each guyline.

Now take 2 smaller pieces of paracord, about 12 inches will do. Bend one piece in half and tie the Prusik knot after the last loop on the basha ridgeline. Then, tie the ends together just inside that last loop. Do the same to the loop at the other end. You should now be able to pull your Basha taut.

Hopefully, you've managed to now successfully set up your basha!
