    New Yellow tarp for HH Expedition ? or DIY?

    My Blue and Yellow holds a lot of memories for me (1st hammock, all my kids used it)
    So I want to keep it and get/make a larger tarp for it.
    Not going with a hex tarp, but something with more coverage than the original has.
    Any ideas? I do not need a UL tarp (we kayak and horse camp).
    I like the heavier material like my HH hex tarps are made of.

    Any ideas where I could get med weight waterproof (yellow) material to make one? (if I cant find one pre made).

    Ripstop by the roll has a hex 12 kit that has everything you need to make your own tarp. They even have a blaze yellow material choice. It's a great deal and you get all the materials in one package.
