    Swapping tarps

    Has anyone tried to use the standard explorer tarp with an expedition model?
    Just curious as it seems it would provide more coverage and still slide into the snakeskins.

    Yes, it will provide more coverage and will fit into snake skins.

    I put an ultralight expedition tarp on my son's scout hammock. It made a huge coverage difference.

    Hennessey snake skins are bigger than they look. I used to put my Explorer and Hex tarp together in skins. It was tight but worked.

    Thanks for the information Carl.
    I bought my daughter a HH Scout and once I get mine we plan on spending weekends hiking the Lone Star Hiking Trail just north of Houston.
