Tarp ridgeline preference?

Paracord 550 is, in my opinion, too bulky for this application, but Paracord 275 is a good fit. Lightweight and not nearly as bulky. And a bit of springiness is not such a bad thing, as it tends to add an extra bit of protection to the tarp. Like 550, 275 does soak up a bit of water, but, since it is small in diameter, it dries very quickly. I think it is a good, less expensive alternative to Zing-It.

I used DutchWearGear 35 ft CRL and you can order it in many variations.

For the bear bag I use Z-Packs kit - http://www.zpacks.com/accessories/bear_bag.shtml

+1 exactly.

The CRL from Dutch has served me well for a couple years now with just a minor change in tarp attachment I call it perfect.

Another vote for 1.75 Zingit. Split 12' RL's with a diamond knot spliced-eye at the tree end and mini ucrs at the hammock end. Tried Fleaz at the tarp end and found them too fiddly.

Can't think of a reason to change this setup. It's the last of the Zingit in my kit, but seems to be ideal for the job.
