    Shewmonphoto, what is the wheelbase your car? Can you get a flat lay with that length?

    99.4 inches, and the Roadie poles are angled, so I think it's about 120in ridgeline. Can't get totally flat, but pretty close, it's not so much the wheelbase, it's the distance from the car. It's not perfect, but when there are no trees for 50 miles and the choice it between that and a tent on the ground.... (Still working on a good tarp setup for it though)

    To mangle an oft quoted axiom: "A bad night in a hammock beats the best night on the ground." =)

    Hello and welcome from Marietta GA. Happy hanging!

    Hello neighbor... I'm in Temecula SoCal. Try to get out often locally in the San Gorgonio mtns with several trips up in the Serrias. There is a local Facebook group for trail reports and group hang info at https://www.facebook.com/groups/1703112183238178/

    See you on the trails....
