(Please)
... I've actually done this three times, and couldn't help but wonder if I was doing it wrong. Each time there was nothing around to suspend anything from but there were mosquitoes, so I basically used my enclosed bug net hammock as a bivvy. One time I used my pack to hold out the foot end but it kept hanging on my face and the bugs had their way with me.
I didn't use a tarp as the weather was clear and luckily it stayed that way. If it had started raining I would have woken up and got moving at whatever time of night it was.
If you're in a flat field, what's the best approach? If I could stake one end out, I could do a lean-to style thing with the tarp and prop the head end of the hammock up?
Anyone have any photos they could share?
