I just ordered a skeeter-beeter for my daughter to have on this Susquehanna River Rat trip we are planning. I plan on modding the hanging system as some have done to the UL so I can use tree huggers and HH lash system. I am also wondering if it would be easier to snake skin it, or should I use the stuff pocket. On the one hand I like the ability to stretch the hammock out and center it before exposing it to the elements. But I don't know how successful the snake skins would be given the bug net suspension. Understand I don't have the hammock yet so I am not sure what I will be looking at. The SB pro appears to have two lines for the bug net. Is that the setup for the SB as well?
I do not have a tarp for this hammock and given the fact that we are canoe camping and weight is not a paramount issue, plus it will be in use for all of about a week, I am planning on getting some cheapie poly tarp that I can use to just keep her dry and give her some privacy. What would be a good size for this? I don't want an "island nation" size... but I do want sufficient coverage.
