    Could this be the solution that gets my wife to hammock camp with me?
    Don't know, but I may have to find out.
    Elegant solution, SH.

    So I showed the wife this last night and her response was...

    "How much is it and where do we order it from?"

    Acceptance is the key to everything."

    Thanks again everyone.

    I'm trying it out this weekend on a day hiking trip... camping next to the lake. Wife has to work, so I get to try it out myself... I'm going to have all that room. I could put a table and a 55" flat screen in there... just think of the possibilities...

    Here is a pic to show what Smokes tarp looks like with two hammocks set up:


    These were taken back in Feb. when we had a group get together and
    day hike into Short Creek in the Caney Creek Wilderness Area. We had a
    mini-hang of sorts showing off hammocks and tarps.

    Videos and words don't do this tarp justice...it has to be seen to be appreciated.

    Actually to be really appreciated it needs to slept under during an all night Ozark rain storm with wind, thunder, lightening, and a nervous wife in the next hammock. I really appreciate it.

    Since I've "been there, done that", I can say without hesitation it is without a doubt the best tarp I've ever used in a two person hang. The fact that it's made by one of the most gracious folks I know makes it even more pleasant to heap on the praises.

    All I can say is if Smokestack goes into production on these, they are a value at whatever price he sets.

    (My wife agrees too! )
