    Yeah, wouldn’t it be great if you could just use one piece of fabric as a one-person hammock, a mealtime tarp for rain, and a ground protection under the tent? They’re all just a quadrilateral bit of nylon. And I would never need all three at the same time. Just a wild hare, since it’s Easter weekend.

    Hammock needs to be breathable though if you’re going to spend any amount of time in it.
