Hello, I'm new to the site and have spent the last few days reading through ALOT of threads and gathering info...I have a few questions though...
About a month ago I decided to get a hammock for a weekend solo camping trip...I ended up purchasing the following items...
ENO Double Nest Hammock
ENO Pro Strap
ENO Guardian Bug-Net
When it came time to go for the weekend my oldest son (9yrs) decided he wanted to tag along too...Instead of taking our tent I decided that I would still take the hammock and a cheap blue tarp...We set everything up and only had a few issues...My biggest issue was getting the hammock hung in a position where we didn't slide down to one end...I must note that we didn't use the bug-net for the simple fact I kept trying to get the hammock to hang correct and never remembered having the bug-net...LOL ...I must say that I had the best night of sleep while camping in a very long time...My son even liked it...
Once we made it back home and was telling my wife and youngest (8yrs) they became interested in trying a hammock...So, I ended up ordering another set of the items listed above...
We are planning on a 3 day trip in 2 weeks and I would like to figure out a better (the proper) way to hang these...I have searched and I'm wondering if I can do this SLS Set-up with this particular hammock?...Also, where can I get the Amsteel Blue (gray) rope and what size should I get?...
For right now we are planning on using a standard blue 10x12 tarp...I'm looking into a OES 4 Season tarp...I have been researching threads for proper ways to hang the tarps too...Lots of GREAT information here...
Thank you for any information that you have to offer...
Todd
