I plan on making self tensioning guy lines out of paracord.

My question is, do you hangers on this forum know of a way to utilize those 2 12' lines for a ridgeline. How would I set it up and attach my tarp?

I was thinking of a night ize knot bone on one end to secure the line to the tree, then a prussic (maybe soft shackle prussic to omit any S biners) attached to the tarp to tighten....

any suggestions? Thanks! GDP


Here is some info that might help. Also get all of your hammock questions answered at hammock forums . Your hammock suspension should be higher than where your tarp ridgeline attached to the trees.
