HG Standard Cuben tarp w/doors: Work on a Bridge?

[Otter1]

Like the title says, will it work on a bridge hammock?

I have no direct experience, so take that as you will, but if it's pitched high enough it will clear the bridge hammock and work (but of course this will limit the coverage of the terp). I would also look into ways to use the side tie-outs to increase the inside area – people use everything from tent poles to creative guyline setups (usually to trees or a tall pole/branch) to lift the sides up further.

I think people even rig-up bumpers for the sides of the spreader bars so in case those rub on the tarp it minimizes the wear on the tarp material.

I had no issues using my Mackinac Bridge with the HG Standard w/Doors. I did pitch the tarp a little wide the 1st time out because I was nervous but after that I just pitched the tarp normally and used the side pullouts. If you haven't already acquired the tarp I believe HG will relocate the side panel pull-outs to better accomodate a bridge hammock but like I said I had no issues without that mod.

Encouraging words! Thank you folks.
