A great shelter you can make is the underground stucko shelter

Stucko is concrete without gravel.

Dig a hole straight down that is wide enough to work in, now, depending on the depth you want, start to dig horizontally into the ground making a box/tomb like shape. Measure out some A studs for support and place them as you go along. Place cut chicken wire along the sides of the tomb and use that as a holder to place the stucko on. Buy or make a pipe or two that CURVES and has a FILTER (for bugs) and place it through the ground into the tomb. Make sure it is camouflage on the topside. Cover the whole insides with stucko and wait to dry.

good. Now, on top side dig a slanted hole above your tomb and place a large tarp at an angle into the ground and cover it with dirt. This will redirect rain water that seeps through the ground away form the ceiling of the tomb.

Make sure the studs are strong and make sure you build this tomb away form natural food sources, for large animals that may walk or stand on top of the tomb.

Construct trap door form logs and tarp and cover with vegetation for camo, ideally the door should sit in the earth to be level with the ground.
