    That would be hammock suspension capable. Definitely overkill. For a tarp, consider something like Dutch's ridgeline biner or his Stingerz. Other vendors have some similar products.

    (And no, a mitten hook isn't going to do it!)

    I confess, a bit of exaggeration on my part!

    Cmc4free's link to the HG Ti clips looks like the best solution perhaps. I've not used hardware for quite a while so my familiarity with it is woefully behind the times.

    Fortunately no. But I did once help pull a car out of a ditch with a seat belt. Long story, that one.

    Hadn't seen HG's ti mitten hooks before. That's a mitten hook that's almost certainly strong enough.
