Love the creativity!This past weekend was the first chance I had to test out my one tree hammock setup. In the past I would tie one end of the hammock to a tree and the other to the roof rack of a SUV.
Because of the hammock I use I can’t use one of the free standing hammock stands. Most of the ones I’ve found are for 10’ gathered end hammocks and I use a bridge hammock. The bridge needs more length than a gathered end hammock.
With the Maverick I opted to try out a bed extender mounted vertically with straps running down to the bed to provide a little back pressure.
Not the best picture but you can see I have one end of the hammock tied to the pole and the other to the extender. My rain fly is tied the same. Worked perfectly for me and I will continue to go this route in the future.
For anyone interested I use;
Dutchware Banyan Bridge hammock
ENO ProFly
ENO Ember under quilt
Top quilt I got on Etsy
Arrowhead Equipment hammock pillow
I use 2 hiking poles to create a porch on one side of tarp
