    Hey from NC!

    I just bought an eno single hammock, and can't wait to use it on my upcoming AT hike. I'm going to cut some Tyvek house wrap as a rain tarp. Glad I found this forum!

    I'm going to play around with it, but I was thinking about trimming the points with some ducttape and putting in a grommet for the ties. I have a whole roll of the stuff, so if I mess up, there is plenty more to try again.

    I'm in Chapel Hill...just south of.

    Welcome Halfback! I grew up not too far from Chapel Hill in Siler City, home of Aunt Bee.

    Congrats on your hammock and on hiking the AT. Good luck with the Tyvek tarp.
