    That might include tarps as well. So make sure you practice hooking your tarp lines to your tree straps. I have heard of park officials giving hangers grief for not following the letter of the rule. Just FYI.

    I carry an extra set of 6' straps in case my hammock straps give way. I have used them sometimes for my tarp. It's a little insurance to keep the peace with the rangers in Florida.
    Enjoy and have fun with your family, before they have fun without you

    Yea it might be wise to stay on the safe side. It does say any other line connected to the tree that is if your tarp has a separate suspension from your hammock.
