Re: The 50 State Project: US State Parks & Hammocks
That's the sticking point. There typically aren't trees in the campsite. They're around it. So if you're in the buffer zone you might ruffle some feathers.

I'm not sure about the science of this, but I have seen where some people are using multiple wraps around the tree with 1" straps to satisfy the wider strap requirement in some areas. It does seem that multiple wraps would distribute the weight across a wider area on the tree.
