If I remember correctly that fabric is a little thick and so it doesn’t stuff well. For tarps like this, I fold and then roll. But the trick to keeping it off the ground is to keep one end attached to your anchor point. This is like having a second person helping to hold the tarp up.

The first thing I do is untie all the guy points and wrap them up, leaving the ridgeline ends tied up. Finally, I untie one ridgeline end leaving the last end up. While holding the loose end, I reach out across the ridgeline and grab the middle and fold over matching the ridgeline ends together. At this point I fold the tarp a few more times, again across the ridgeline. I can then fold and half the fabric until I get it down to the width where I can roll it down to slide it into the stuff sack.

And my biggest issue that I have, is getting it back into the stuff sack…I can eventually get it but after some time and having to take it to the ground.(but I’m not crazy about that, the less I have to take it to the ground the better. To many stick and stones/chances of ripping). Any tips or tricks to re-packing it?(I tried snake skins, but doesn’t seem to pack as nice as the stuff sack)

Thanks, yeah that part seems pretty straightforward. Was more interested in the end of the cord near the LineLoc, not the stake (for question #2). Wasn’t sure if the LineLoc alone was strong enough in a gust, or if you added a hitch to the slack cord near the LineLoc.

For question #1, it’s about your ridgeline tie-offs. The LineLoc is great there too, but I was curious if you attached to the tree with a large bowline loop or some sort of biner that allowed your hammock’s suspension to jut through the tarp’s ridgeline tie-offs.

Hope that clarifies my questions a bit.

I believe i used the line loc provided by ENO. Each line is terminated by a tied loop that you hook over a stake.

1) In the photo featuring the hammock, what kind of tie-off did you use at the trees to achieve that V-shaped gap allowing the hammock’s Atlas suspension straps to feed through it?

2) Once you’ve cinched the guy lines using the LineLoc, do you recommend a tie-off to keep it in place, like a double half-hitch?

Yes, I’m not a huge fan of the stiff guy lines. What size Lash-it did you use? The 2mm should work on those line locs, but the 1.75mm might be too thin.

Then the line locs didn’t work because the Lash-it was too thin…so I just ran it though the grosgrain loops. yay. It works now. Glad to know I wasn’t the only one who didn’t like the guy lines that come with the tarp.
