I cropped the only photo I have of my patched Eno hammock tarp to highlight the tarp. This is from my canoe trip this past Oct in BWCA in Northern Minnesota. Much too high to sleep on the ground, but I wanted it for a day to sit under, cook under, etc., while it rains outside. The lines on it were included with it, I only needed to add my own stakes. Pitched lower with a ground cloth it would work great for tarp camping. I do not sleep in hammocks, but that is what it was designed for so it would work great for that too.



The tent in the foreground is my late 90s vintage REI NiteLite tent that is too heavy for backpacking and I have retired it from bike touring due to weight, but it is great on a canoe trip were weight is unimportant. I still used it for bike touring when I toured Iceland where it can get quite windy. It worked great in the wind there.
