Yeah I'm very new to hammocking myself. Just had 3 nights since I recently started. Well I did have a night in a hammock about 30 years ago as well.

I'm looking for a tarp that will work well with a hammock (for 1 person) and also when pitched on the ground (for up to 2 people).
Of the Warbonnet offerings, the Superfly seems like it might be...

I normally sleep in a tent or bivy bag, but at one point on a recent trip I would have given anything...
