Hi all. Is there an up-to-date guide somewhere that details where hammocks are or aren’t allowed, where 2” straps are required, etc?

Just to be safe I'm going to make 2 Turtle Dog Stands.
A couple of heavy duty stands will not take up much space when they aren't being used.
I almost have my wife pushed over the edge to get her a hammock.
I got started building a heavy duty stand, got one 6x6 cemented in the ground, I have the ends of the second post painted, and the hole dug, then it started raining...
To add to it Dental problem cropped up. I broke a tooth that supported a 4 tooth bridge. Tooth pulled, now I'm waiting to heal my mouth, then 2 implants to hold the bridge.
It's been a sleep in the recliner kind of day. It's been raining cats and dogs here.
Are there places requiring a 2" strap? I thought Florida State Parks did at one point but see they are now 1".
As for locations that don't allow hammocks, there are no up-to-date listings that I'm aware of.
I have a set of short 2" huggers that I got when Florida seemed confused about what size was acceptable. I carry them just in case.
I did recently find a list of NPs that do, or don't, here; https://sierramadreresearch.com/blog...national-parks
I like that Death Valley allows hammocks. Now the problem is to find two trees there.
I am still 18 but with 52 years of experience !
Gateway Arch National Park, Missouri, And Illinois
Designated Campgrounds: No, Hammock camping is not allowed.
Now that would be interesting.....

Did notice a lot of the No Hammock camping allowed aligned with just no camping allowed. Example: Cuyahoga NP. here in Ohio. There is no back country camping hammock or tent.
Last I checked, Texas required 2" tree straps; I haven't seen it enforced...ymmv.
