First off, what an amazing site! My name is Matt and I live in beautiful Cedar City Utah. I've always been into hiking and camping, but I'm rather new to the hammock world. Seeing as how I live 20-30 min from Cedar Breaks, Zion etc. you can imagine my excitement as I ditch the tent. I'm the assistant Scout Master for my local troop and we go camping at least once a month. My current set up is the ENO singlenest with the ENO bug net and Atlas straps. I just ordered the WB Superfly and can't wait to put my gear to use. I'm headed out for a 7 day trip with the troop at the beginning of Aug. Do you guys have any tips or advice for me? We're headed to the mountains which is still hitting temps in the low 40's at night. I guess my main area of concern is getting the tarp and ridgeline set up correctly. My current thought is to put up a tight ridgeline and throw the tarp over and secure it to the ridgeline using prussic knots. Should this work out OK? Is 5/50 cord appropriate for this sort of set up?
TIA!
-Matt
