Turned diagonally, it will fit your hammock!

Wow! I get the priveledge of advocating the guide gear tarp! Buy the 8.5x8.5(it is now properly labeled). It can be found at...

Definitely do your backyard first. There are many tricks to learn in setting up and if you have a gear failure, you can go in and get something else or just call it a night. In the woods, going back...
