I'm new at this, so this may be an old idea. . .
I like the convenience of the Hennessy single line for tarp & hammock, but I think it is the wrong way around. At least for rainy Seattle. I would like to put up the tarp first and take it down last. For that matter, I would like to stay under the tarp when hanging my hammock.
So I ask, could this work?
(The image would be here, if I were any good at computers. Until I figure it out, please view my gallery. Thanks)
The idea is that a tarp line made of Amsteel could have fixed loops with carabiners that short lines from each end of the hammock could clip to. The tarp itself would attach to the tarp line by prusik between this carabiner and the tree.
I haven't built it yet, and am looking for the thoughts of others as to whether this would work.
