    Oh. I thought the adjustment was on the hammock end. I see how the hooks work now.

    Nice. How far apart and what size trees can you hang on?

    The strap can work for trees up to 1.90986 feet. If the tree is smaler than that it will extend the usable length of the leads. So i have 6' usable adjustability on the leads if the tree size is maxed out. More if its not.

    What if you have small trees really close together?

    Just trying to see if I want to try it or not.

    It would be great for my kids. Very simple setup.

    Oh that's just great! I always carry my tree calipers with me, and the smallest trees we have around here measure 1.90993 feet! Oh well, I would like to have tried this...
