I set up an experimental tarp suspension. Maybe it's too slow, like me. But there is a certain economy there a sparseness. Both tree ends have a spliced end loop with a grapplers hitch to close at the tree. No knots and no hardware so far, now what to do with the extra rope in the middle. Form a bight, under the tarp and send it through the prusik on the tarps end and back towards the other tree, but still under the tarp(like a truckers hitch but no knot, just a bight and to hold it tight a continuous loop 5wrapped prusik to tarp line and a grapplers hitch tied on the prusik loop and holding the bight. The jury is still out, and I will try to film and or photo this for you too see.
A soft shackle prusik might sub for grapplers hitch, but a grapplers hitch can never be lost. But if you can't tie a two strand double diamond knot, then maybe you can buy a soft shackle that can be prusiked.

Took off Friday and two hours into the trip my car decided it would rather ride than be driven. Had to tow it back to Atlanta for what I presume will be a DOA diagnosis...
Was really looking forward to the weekend. I'm sure I'll feel even worse when I see the pictures come through next week.
Have a great time! I will try to catch up on the next group hang!

Armchair Guy, I hope your car can be repaired for less than the cost of a similar car. I ate extra Q since you weren't here.
