    yeah I've had a look around the respective parks websites. nothing official that I can see.

    some of the backpacker forums have quite animated discussions from hammock campers and those that believe hammocks are damaging. that's a great website though, maybe I'll direct them there. Thanks!

    In Tassie, I have only ever been met by curious questions from the rangers and fellow campers alike. I say go for it, prepare yourself with some knowledge about LNT incase you get asked and plead ignorance if someone tells you to move on. It's worth it!

    Don't forget to let us know what hammock you get and how you're getting on with it.

    Cheers, TL
