I have a GrandTrunk DN hammock and ENO ProFly tarp that are the same length. Long story, but I was familiar with the ProFly with my Eno DN and so got another. I left for a short trip with the GT hammock, not realizing it is a foot longer than the Eno DN (spontaneous trips are always a bit dangerous as they tend to be not the best thought out in my case). Great comfortable hang in the GT DN, and after a intense early morning storm, the foot of my hammock was moist - not soaked. I hung with some sag which allowed tarp coverage on both ends, but not quite enough spare coverage for the foot of the hammock, apparently. I've been thinking of a way to rig a 1.5' tube of waterproof material over the foot of my GT and tarp. Then it occurred to me another possible solution short of spending more dough on really big tarp, is to bob the end or ends of the hammock to shorten by 6" when hanging in in-climate weather. Has anyone tried either of these options?
Yes, I am trying not to purchase more gear, but if I have to I will.
Thanks.
