    Use a long/thin (2x5m) waterproof 'logpile' tarp. It is hung +between two side longitudinal ropes, with lots of bits of string +attaching the eyelets to the side ropes.

    It's easiest to approximately tie the tarp to the side ropes with +adjustable knots, then put the ropes in place, adjusting as you +go. The outer line ends up too high to adjust once properly in +place.

    This one's also minimal – but links to useful info on another site. There is (Jan 2000), however, in addition to the rudimentary page above, a few pages towards a full Austria-specific guide. The contents page links to an Introduction and a useful section on placing bolts and it may be useful to refer to the expedition Fixed Aids list to see what gear has been left in place from previous years.
