Building shelter?

[bushcraftboy]

I'm still a beginner, and I'm not very good at building shelters, so what would be the fastest, easiest, warmest shelter to build?

Preferably of the cold ground.

lean to type debris shelter with fire pit and heat reflector and build in a sleeping platform of logs and fir boughs

I have a 2 man tent, but I mean't building shelter, when a tent is not at hand.

You will never stop Martin using the trusty tent!

You will also never stop Martin answering with his tongue firmly planted in his cheek...

To attempt an answer: Debris Hut. (follow the link)

Fast, simple, warm. Use a downed tree, uprooted root system and you've got 1/2 the work done.

I'd prefer the shelter to be off the cold ground.
