I finished guying his tarp and mine was not guyed on either side, gear was on a poly floor runner next to the hammock. He never wanted to hang close to the others, conversation bothered him, we had to remove some stubble before hanging hammocks, he had a pair of clipper clipping small growth away where we were setting up. Told him it had to be cut off under ground level. Well evidently he didn’t listen. My hammock tore to the ground when I got in. I slept on my backpack that night. He had one end of my hammock, I the other, he let it drag the ground before I could lift it up. So , I have the newest Blackbird now.
