    DIY Ground Cloth

    This takes very little room in your pack, it's easy and quick to set up. It's also convenient for keeping gear off the wet ground. Thanks for watching.

    All my morning aches and pains went away when I discovered hammock camping!

    That's really nice. Absolutely something I could see myself carrying. Thanks for sharing.
    I used to be a somebody, now I just camp.

    This is a cool little piece of gear. Might try this instead of a garbage bag on my next trip.

    Available here unprinted and cut to 8'x10'. I wish they made it bigger for tarps.

    I also use a ground sheet / hammock "porch" - very similar in size but no tie-downs (just use rocks or gear); made of Tyvek Homewrap.

    I made one as well but slightly different. Maybe it'll come in handy to some looking to have several tools in one.

    Nice design. Like the pockets to hold rocks and the tie down loops. Thanks for sharing.
