Hey guys I am new here on this forum I am on bushcraftusa. I havent been able to get an answer from people on their hammock threads so here it is.
What is the right size for a tarp that I can use all year round and that will fit with the eno Singlenest. I am open to all suggestions but keep in mind i cant spend over 100 dollars.
Check here......http://www.jacksrbetter.com/shop/hex-tarps/
Good tarp...11' ridgeline. $109
And....Paul at Arrowhead has some terrific tarps for $99)_))))).....http://www.arrowhead-equipment.com/tarps.html
Shug
Lots of options available. 11' and 12' ridgeline Hex tarps are popular, pitch tight and pack pretty small.
Several options that are popular are the Warbonnet Edge, or Mamajamba, the OES Ultra or Deluxe. They are among some of the best available.
holy crap thanks shug i love your videos i am watching part 2 of the wandering with wanderin video now thanks for the help my yt name is Grant Trenwith and RagingOatmeal
Hennessy 70D Hex is good value at $70
Ditto. Very good value and coverage for your price range.Quote:

Check out the silnylon tarps on sale at Etowah Outdoors $79 w) hanging kit ! I have an 11/12 and a 10/10 . I use the 10/10 year round ! It's tall enough to stand at an angle and have the tarp edges staked to the ground and long enough to close the ends off for doors ! The 10/10 weighs in at a whopping 13oz and has 16 tie off tabs that are breakaway! Instead of ripping your tarp the tabs will pull off first! This may concern you but I've had mine on a ridge in 55 mph winds and it is still in perfect shape!
I picked up a new Kelty Noahs 12x12 off Amazon for $51.00
They have a 9x9 too but I went bigger so I can cover two hammocks or close in the ends a but if it's nasty.
I also use a ENO Singlenest and am extremely happy with the Wilderness Logics "Tad Pole", 132" x 92", $85.00 current price.

I just finished 2 nights in the woods with wind/rain and it performed great. (Note: wouldn't consider it a "winter" tent since it's not grossly wide but it only weighs 11.5 ounces).
Warbonnet has a sale on their super fly, big tarp with doors for $110... To be it would be worth the over spent $10 to get that tarp and be done, one tarp to cover all seasons... 19 oz sil nylon... Ask for a little Christmas money and order it before Christmas day and its all yours...
If you can wait till May check out the Guide Gear 12x12 tarps. They are cheap and have been of good quality, except for this past year's run which was less than stellar. It is big enough to use as a winter tarp with the ends closed for doors and can be pitched in a ton of different configurations with the 17 tie out points. :cool:
I used a Mac Cat Deluxe for most of the spring and summer.
Never a problem.
When it was cold though, I wish it would have had doors.
Warbonnet is running a sale right now.
SuperFly for a bit more over $100. Totally worth it.
The Edge, if you can't go over $100
It kind of like meeting a minor celebrity huh? Kinda twists your tongue?:eek:Quote:
