Hey Gang, tried out my new jungle hammock and love it. The only thing I will probably modify is using some kind of elastic/bungee to more easily hang the rainfly.

Looking at some pics (Neo's and others) it seems several people are doing the same thing. Any recommendations would be appreciated!

I have a Clark North American. I didn't like the rope or the tarp.
Actually, I got the larger size tarp and hate it. I use a much larger sil nylon tarp and I use webbing instead of the rope. I sewed a couple of pockets into the hammock and can insert rods into them that expand the mesh up and out...giving more room in the hammock and keeping the mesh from sagging inward. In all it's a great hammock and I'm very happy with it.

Can you be more specific? I just ordered one and haven't yet been in it.
