    any ideas or advice on how to add a ridgeline and bugnet covering the top only to a trek light hammock

    There are a few bug nets that cover just the top and even less .the hug bug net ony covers the upper body. Im not sure who made the top only maybey fronky? It had shock cord to hold it tight or a draw string. Look in diy section. Good luck

    Dejoha invented the HUG:

    Adding a ridgeline to any hammock is relatively simple... Larkshead a line to one end, around the suspension line, and tie it off to the other.

    Hugs work great, and are easy to make...
