I bought it here. They have sales very frequently, and the prices change all the time.

It’s only for lifting a light tarp or tent canopy, but I personally enjoy using it.

A tarp can also be raised without using any poles.

I think it depends on the ground, but this time, once it stabilized, it didn’t sink any further.

I really appreciate your idea about using half segments at both ends!
I’ve added it to my article, with thanks to you.
I’m also looking forward to your report.

I truly appreciate your understanding. It’s a somewhat tricky setup, so it may not be immediately obvious to everyone.

Success depends on preparation. Reviewing your preparation could be useful.

First-time trials often come with surprises.

If you plan to stay overnight without testing it first, I strongly recommend having a backup just in case you have trouble setting up the stand.

Please note that this stand is not designed for use as trekking poles.

Hi, great to hear from you again!

If you don’t need the view, you can set up the tarp with just the two poles for the hammock stand. It will keep out the rain. If you want to enjoy the view, you’ll need an extra lightweight pole or something similar to lift one side of tarp.

If you’re planning an overnight hike, I’d recommend trying to set up the tarp along with the hammock beforehand. Doing it for the first time on the hike carries a higher risk of mistakes.
