    Tarp w/doors for Chameleon

    Pulled the trigger on a Chameleon wide with bug net and now need to decide on an AFFORBABLE tarp w/doors. I will be using it on the AT, so weight is an issue but I can not afford cuban fabric. Must be able to secure doors open to use 3 seasons. Would love to keep it under $150. Recommendations?

    Our WinterDream works very well with all gathered end hammocks, we have more colors, more options, and impeccable quality as Missy Lou will not let anything slid by her. We have the Penny Pincher line that starts at $99.95 for a Winter Dream 11 which is a CRAZY price for the quality you get.

    I built my own tarp out of silnylon that the ends close like doors. My chameleon clone fits in it great and even with metal d rings at the tie outs it only weighs 1 lbs even with the stuff sack. It cost about $50 in materials and a few hours at a sewing machine. I even am making a few for friends in my scout troop.

    Basically two common styles of tarps with doors: (1) the winter tarps such as those offered by WB, UGQ, HG, WL, Dutch, and SLD (and maybe others) and (2) rectangular tarps that become a hex with doors as above shown by Marnoc. Many available. The other option would be to add doors to an existing tarp, either removable or sewn on. Lots of choices...

    One of the pluses with ordering from WB: Brandon often has some in stock. And the SF is definitely one of the top choices.
