    Adapting Yeti to lightweight hammock

    I’ve been using my Yeti with an eldorado, where it attaches easily to the gathered end. Now i’m trying out a lighter weight hammock (a used Dutch ‘flippin the bird’ for a planned AT thruhike) that has a much smaller gathered end, so the shock cord won’t grab reliably. Any suggestions for the easiest way to attach it? I’ve considered using some of those plastic ridgeline clips.

    You can add an s-biner or mini biner to the suspension of the Yeti and then clip it to the hammock suspension.
    That is what I always do.

    Perfect, thank you for the help. First step will be to restore the shock cord on one end that I damaged with over stretching. I’m glad there’s no video evidence of my 2 am misadventure, just a harmless episode of (very) cbs.
