hello everyone,
so finally after crying about the weight of a hammock, i stopped being such a baby and bought a HH hyperlight, and i've become quite a fan! i'm thinking about making it my shelter for my summer transamerica bicycle ride. however i'm also thinking about doing the JMT in the same summer (when im out in yellowstone, be a shame not to!) realistically i realize that i wont be able to find 2 suitable trees/structures all the time, so I'm looking for a lightweight tarp that can be used over my hyperlight and when i go to the ground. what would be an ideal dimension? for instance a rectangular 10x5 or something? i did the AT this summer with a ground set up with a poncho tarp, so i dont need a palace, i just need to make sure i've got enough room to be dry. i've got an 8x10 foot sil tarp lying around, but it's sooo heavy and big! any advice? remember think lightweight and versatile (and cuben is to bright for stealth camping imo)
thanks!
mike!
(beershake!)
p.s. Cannibal from florida, dude! p.m. me sometime, i wanna hear how your hike went! (we hiked together a little bit in PA, and that nice BBQ place, and that town i dont remember )
