Keeping your boots, backpack and gear dry when the rain starts, quickly turns into a mad scramble.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Clipping to a ridge line, utilizing hammock pockets, hanging a gear strap, and popping a gear tent are all great options for protecting your clothes, pack, lamp and electronic devices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Even when the weather is sunny and bright, nighttime moisture and morning dew can make your gear damp and soggy.

It\u2019s also to maintain the condition and longevity of your gear.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Gear Slings<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Gear slings are great for under hammock storage because they keep your gear off the ground but still easily accessible. Slings are like a mini hammock for your gear, they can handle the full load of your backpack, shoes and any other equipment you bring on the trip.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Gear slings can be hung under or above your hammock to utilize the protection of your hammock\u2019s tarp. Otherwise they can be strung up in a totally separate location sheltered from the rain and weather. They are also compact leaving lots of space in your backpack for the essentials. You can bring your own or share space with a friend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When I\u2019m out on the trail I ladder mine and the slings of my friends between the same trees and we use a single tarp to cover them all. That way we know where everything is and reduce the number of lines criss crossing the campsite.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n<div class=\"aawp\">\n\n            \n            \n<div class=\"aawp-product aawp-product--horizontal aawp-product--css-adjust-image-large\"  data-aawp-product-asin=\"B00MU2HZ8G\" data-aawp-product-id=\"13495\" data-aawp-tracking-id=\"lifeonroute02-20\" data-aawp-product-title=\"ENO Underbelly Gear Sling - Storage Hammock for Portable Hammocks - for Hiking Camping Backpacking Beach Festivals or Backyards - Charcoal\">\n\n    \n    <div class=\"aawp-product__thumb\">\n        <a class=\"aawp-product__image-link\"\n           href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B00MU2HZ8G?tag=lifeonroute02-20\" title=\"ENO Underbelly Gear Sling - Storage Hammock for Portable Hammocks - for Hiking, Camping,...\" rel=\"nofollow noopener sponsored\" target=\"_blank\">\n            <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aawp-product__image\" src=\"https:\/\/m.media-amazon.com\/images\/I\/319JSYHBg-L.jpg\" alt=\"ENO Underbelly Gear Sling - Storage Hammock for Portable Hammocks - for Hiking, Camping,...\"  \/>\n        <\/a>\n\n            <\/div>\n\n    <div class=\"aawp-product__content\">\n        <a class=\"aawp-product__title\" href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B00MU2HZ8G?tag=lifeonroute02-20\" title=\"ENO Underbelly Gear Sling - Storage Hammock for Portable Hammocks - for Hiking, Camping,...\" rel=\"nofollow noopener sponsored\" target=\"_blank\">\n            ENO Underbelly Gear Sling - Storage Hammock for Portable Hammocks - for Hiking, Camping,...        <\/a>\n        <div class=\"aawp-product__description\">\n            <ul><li>Camping Accessories: This underbelly organizer keeps all your camping and hiking gear within reach<\/li><li>Reliable Hammock Accessory: This storage hammock holds up to 50 lbs of your hiking and camping gear<\/li><li>Simple Setup: The storage pocket uses LineLoc guyline tensioners to help with easy setup and takedown<\/li><\/ul>        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n\n    <div class=\"aawp-product__footer\">\n\n        <div class=\"aawp-product__pricing\">\n            \n            \n            <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/prime\/?tag=lifeonroute02-20\" title=\"Amazon Prime\" rel=\"nofollow noopener sponsored\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"aawp-check-prime\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/lifeonroute.com\/wp-content\/plugins\/aawp\/assets\/img\/icon-check-prime.svg\" height=\"16\" width=\"55\" alt=\"Amazon Prime\" \/><\/a>        <\/div>\n\n                <a class=\"aawp-button aawp-button--buy aawp-button aawp-button--amazon\" href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B00MU2HZ8G?tag=lifeonroute02-20\" title=\"Check Latest Deals\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener sponsored\">Check Latest Deals<\/a>\n            <\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n\n    \n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n\n<div class=\"aawp\">\n\n            \n            \n<div class=\"aawp-product aawp-product--horizontal aawp-product--css-adjust-image-large\"  data-aawp-product-asin=\"B073XYLHHF\" data-aawp-product-id=\"13496\" data-aawp-tracking-id=\"lifeonroute02-20\" data-aawp-product-title=\"E-Z UP Gear Loft Hanging Shelf Canopy Accessory\">\n\n    \n    <div class=\"aawp-product__thumb\">\n        <a class=\"aawp-product__image-link\"\n           href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B073XYLHHF?tag=lifeonroute02-20\" title=\"E-Z UP Gear Loft Hanging Shelf Canopy Accessory\" rel=\"nofollow noopener sponsored\" target=\"_blank\">\n            <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aawp-product__image\" src=\"https:\/\/m.media-amazon.com\/images\/I\/41h6KAex6tL.jpg\" alt=\"E-Z UP Gear Loft Hanging Shelf Canopy Accessory\"  \/>\n        <\/a>\n\n            <\/div>\n\n    <div class=\"aawp-product__content\">\n        <a class=\"aawp-product__title\" href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B073XYLHHF?tag=lifeonroute02-20\" title=\"E-Z UP Gear Loft Hanging Shelf Canopy Accessory\" rel=\"nofollow noopener sponsored\" target=\"_blank\">\n            E-Z UP Gear Loft Hanging Shelf Canopy Accessory        <\/a>\n        <div class=\"aawp-product__description\">\n            <ul><li>Hanging storage loft in the corner of your E-Z up Shelter, camping cube tent, or screen cube.

Constructed similar to a multi loop hammock strap, storage straps span the space between trees and provide separate loops for attaching carabiners, clips or rope. They can also be hung vertically if preferred.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The individual loops prevent all your gear from migrating to the center and creating a low spot. Storage isn\u2019t the only use either, hanging a lantern to illuminate your campsite in the evening or your pots and pans to dry after washing is awesome.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Due to their simplicity they\u2019re lightweight and easily packable, and because they&#8217;re a strap they can support a lot of weight. A single strap can support the gear of a small group, just be sure the trees you hang it from can too!<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n<div class=\"aawp\">\n\n            \n            \n<div class=\"aawp-product aawp-product--horizontal aawp-product--css-adjust-image-large\"  data-aawp-product-asin=\"B07BLWZ5YQ\" data-aawp-product-id=\"13497\" data-aawp-tracking-id=\"lifeonroute02-20\" data-aawp-product-title=\"LAMURO Campsite or Garden Supplies Storage Strap with 8 Hooks | Hanging Your Camping Gear from a Tree | Vertical or Horizontal Organizer\">\n\n    \n    <div class=\"aawp-product__thumb\">\n        <a class=\"aawp-product__image-link\"\n           href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B07BLWZ5YQ?tag=lifeonroute02-20\" title=\"LAMURO Campsite or Garden Supplies Storage Strap with 8 Hooks | Hanging Your Camping Gear from a...\" rel=\"nofollow noopener sponsored\" target=\"_blank\">\n            <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aawp-product__image\" src=\"https:\/\/m.media-amazon.com\/images\/I\/5105VeBcZ-L.jpg\" alt=\"LAMURO Campsite or Garden Supplies Storage Strap with 8 Hooks | Hanging Your Camping Gear from a...\"  \/>\n        <\/a>\n\n            <\/div>\n\n    <div class=\"aawp-product__content\">\n        <a class=\"aawp-product__title\" href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B07BLWZ5YQ?tag=lifeonroute02-20\" title=\"LAMURO Campsite or Garden Supplies Storage Strap with 8 Hooks | Hanging Your Camping Gear from a...\" rel=\"nofollow noopener sponsored\" target=\"_blank\">\n            LAMURO Campsite or Garden Supplies Storage Strap with 8 Hooks | Hanging Your Camping Gear from a...        <\/a>\n        <div class=\"aawp-product__description\">\n            <ul><li>STRONG AND DURABLE: The heavy-duty nylon strap with sturdy stitching will hold 150 lbs \u2013 plenty for camping lantern or lights,kitchen...<\/li><li>EASY TO HANG: Wrap the 3 foot long strap to the larger tree and pull tight, then secure the 10 foot long strap to a nearby tree and connect...<\/li><li>MULTIPLE LOOPS AND CARABINER HOOKS: The primary band features 19 loops and includes 8 carabiner hooks - the loops ingeniously keep the hooks...<\/li><\/ul>        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n\n    <div class=\"aawp-product__footer\">\n\n        <div class=\"aawp-product__pricing\">\n            \n            \n            <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/prime\/?tag=lifeonroute02-20\" title=\"Amazon Prime\" rel=\"nofollow noopener sponsored\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"aawp-check-prime\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/lifeonroute.com\/wp-content\/plugins\/aawp\/assets\/img\/icon-check-prime.svg\" height=\"16\" width=\"55\" alt=\"Amazon Prime\" \/><\/a>        <\/div>\n\n                <a class=\"aawp-button aawp-button--buy aawp-button aawp-button--amazon\" href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B07BLWZ5YQ?tag=lifeonroute02-20\" title=\"Check Latest Deals\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener sponsored\">Check Latest Deals<\/a>\n            <\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n\n    \n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Ridgelines and Organizers<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>High quality cord strung up as an overhead ridgeline can provide a simple solution for hanging and organizing your gear. 550lb Type III nylon paracord will support anything you have laying around your campsite. It can be cut to any desired length with the use of a lighter, burning it seals the ends and prevents the strands from unravelling at the ends. Cord has all kinds of uses around a campsite and getting a handle on some basic knots will serve any camper well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Stretch the ridgeline between your tarp and hammock to keep it and your gear protected from the elements. If you\u2019re using a continuous ridgeline for your tarp you could hang some gear from it but It&#8217;s not recommended. The added weight can create a low spot on your ridgeline and cause issues with runoff, run a separate gear line whenever possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n<div class=\"aawp\">\n\n            \n            \n<div class=\"aawp-product aawp-product--horizontal aawp-product--css-adjust-image-large\"  data-aawp-product-asin=\"B00CHPR5RW\" data-aawp-product-id=\"13498\" data-aawp-tracking-id=\"lifeonroute02-20\" data-aawp-product-title=\"Paracord Planet 550lb Type III Paracord Combo Crafting Kits with Buckles \u2013 100 ft\">\n\n    \n    <div class=\"aawp-product__thumb\">\n        <a class=\"aawp-product__image-link\"\n           href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B00CHPR5RW?tag=lifeonroute02-20\" title=\"Paracord Planet 550lb Type III Paracord Combo Crafting Kits with Buckles \u2013 100 ft\" rel=\"nofollow noopener sponsored\" target=\"_blank\">\n            <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aawp-product__image\" src=\"https:\/\/m.media-amazon.com\/images\/I\/51QWajwkVuL.jpg\" alt=\"Paracord Planet 550lb Type III Paracord Combo Crafting Kits with Buckles \u2013 100 ft\"  \/>\n        <\/a>\n\n            <\/div>\n\n    <div class=\"aawp-product__content\">\n        <a class=\"aawp-product__title\" href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B00CHPR5RW?tag=lifeonroute02-20\" title=\"Paracord Planet 550lb Type III Paracord Combo Crafting Kits with Buckles \u2013 100 ft\" rel=\"nofollow noopener sponsored\" target=\"_blank\">\n            Paracord Planet 550lb Type III Paracord Combo Crafting Kits with Buckles \u2013 100 ft        <\/a>\n        <div class=\"aawp-product__description\">\n            <ul><li>550 PARACORD COMBO KIT includes Type III 7-strand 550 paracord with matching buckles.

Commonly used by kayakers, rafters and divers, dry bags can hold many of the important items you don&#8217;t want to get wet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Having a dry bag eliminates the need of keeping all your gear under cover as well because they can be easily loaded, rolled, and sealed. The handle can even clip around a tree branch be hung from a ridge line or  attached to the outside of your pack.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Instead of adding more items to your pack, dry bags can be used as an organizer within your pack and simply pulled out and hung up once you reach your campsite. Just preload the bag with the items you want readily available, its great for keeping your smaller items together rather than sifting through your pack for them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n<div class=\"aawp\">\n\n            \n            \n<div class=\"aawp-product aawp-product--horizontal aawp-product--ribbon aawp-product--sale aawp-product--css-adjust-image-large\"  data-aawp-product-asin=\"B076B17RSG\" data-aawp-product-id=\"13500\" data-aawp-tracking-id=\"lifeonroute02-20\" data-aawp-product-title=\"Earth Pak Waterproof Dry Bag with Zippered Pocket - Waterproof Dry Bag Backpack Keeps Gear Dry for Boating Camping Fishing Beach Drybag Kayak Accessories - Dry Bags Waterproof with Phone Case 30L\">\n\n    <span class=\"aawp-product__ribbon aawp-product__ribbon--sale\">Sale<\/span>\n    <div class=\"aawp-product__thumb\">\n        <a class=\"aawp-product__image-link\"\n           href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B076B17RSG?tag=lifeonroute02-20\" title=\"Earth Pak Waterproof Dry Bag with Zippered Pocket - Waterproof Dry Bag Backpack Keeps Gear Dry for...\" rel=\"nofollow noopener sponsored\" target=\"_blank\">\n            <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aawp-product__image\" src=\"https:\/\/m.media-amazon.com\/images\/I\/51bY99nWcBL.jpg\" alt=\"Earth Pak Waterproof Dry Bag with Zippered Pocket - Waterproof Dry Bag Backpack Keeps Gear Dry for...\"  \/>\n        <\/a>\n\n            <\/div>\n\n    <div class=\"aawp-product__content\">\n        <a class=\"aawp-product__title\" href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B076B17RSG?tag=lifeonroute02-20\" title=\"Earth Pak Waterproof Dry Bag with Zippered Pocket - Waterproof Dry Bag Backpack Keeps Gear Dry for...\" rel=\"nofollow noopener sponsored\" target=\"_blank\">\n            Earth Pak Waterproof Dry Bag with Zippered Pocket - Waterproof Dry Bag Backpack Keeps Gear Dry for...        <\/a>\n        <div class=\"aawp-product__description\">\n            <ul><li>PROTECT YOUR GEAR: Constructed from commercial-grade 500D PVC for high performance, durability, and protection wet bag waterproof backpack....<\/li><li>ZIPPERED FRONT POCKET: Allows for easy access for you to grab important items without having to unroll the top main compartment.

It\u2019s not good to hang anything too heavy though, it will unbalance your hammock and create issues. Heavier items can start swinging and disrupt your sleep if not damage your hammock and gear. Here&#8217;s some more tips to <a href=\"https:\/\/lifeonroute.com\/hammock-camping-comfortable\/\"  rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">make hammock camping more comfortable<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you choose to hang gear from your hammock straps don\u2019t clip it directly on, create some loops using paracord and a slipknot and clip your gear to the loops. This should prevent anything from sliding down the straps toward your hammock when you get in it.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Keeping_Your_Gear_Dry\"><\/span>Keeping Your Gear Dry<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Now that we\u2019ve covered the ways to keep your gear off the ground, let\u2019s talk about keeping it dry. These two topics go hand in hand to protect your gear from the top and bottom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Overhead Tarp<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Using a tarp is an obvious solution for overhead protection since they\u2019re synonymous with hammock camping. If your chosen method of gear hanging is oriented in a way that your hammock\u2019s tarp will cover it then you\u2019re all set.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Bringing a second smaller tarp for a more remote gear hanging location is helpful because it can be hung higher to allow access to your gear while standing upright. Storing your gear this way will make accessing the items you need much easier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Your gear tarp doesn\u2019t need to be as big as your standard hammock tent, it should be small, compact and lightweight. 5&#215;6 is a reasonable size, it will cover your gear ans still have overgang for protection without making access a pain.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Your gear tarp needs sturdy attachment points at the corners so it can be tightly secured down with guy lines. Having center loops for a ridgeline is a bonus but not essential, it can simply lay over the ridgeline when necessary.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Your small tarp can also function as a ground sheet if there\u2019s enough room to lay your gear on the ground under your hammock.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n<div class=\"aawp\">\n\n            \n            \n<div class=\"aawp-product aawp-product--horizontal aawp-product--css-adjust-image-large\"  data-aawp-product-asin=\"B01LON78E2\" data-aawp-product-id=\"13501\" data-aawp-tracking-id=\"lifeonroute02-20\" data-aawp-product-title=\"BEARZ Outdoor Pocket Blanket - Waterproof Picnic Blanket Compact Travel Blanket Picnic Blankets Waterproof Foldable Lightweight for Beach Hiking Festival Accessories  Green\">\n\n    \n    <div class=\"aawp-product__thumb\">\n        <a class=\"aawp-product__image-link\"\n           href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B01LON78E2?tag=lifeonroute02-20\" title=\"BEARZ Outdoor Pocket Blanket - Waterproof Picnic Blanket, Compact Travel Blanket, Picnic Blankets...\" rel=\"nofollow noopener sponsored\" target=\"_blank\">\n            <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aawp-product__image\" src=\"https:\/\/m.media-amazon.com\/images\/I\/51TCUWNKc6L.jpg\" alt=\"BEARZ Outdoor Pocket Blanket - Waterproof Picnic Blanket, Compact Travel Blanket, Picnic Blankets...\"  \/>\n        <\/a>\n\n            <\/div>\n\n    <div class=\"aawp-product__content\">\n        <a class=\"aawp-product__title\" href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B01LON78E2?tag=lifeonroute02-20\" title=\"BEARZ Outdoor Pocket Blanket - Waterproof Picnic Blanket, Compact Travel Blanket, Picnic Blankets...\" rel=\"nofollow noopener sponsored\" target=\"_blank\">\n            BEARZ Outdoor Pocket Blanket - Waterproof Picnic Blanket, Compact Travel Blanket, Picnic Blankets...        <\/a>\n        <div class=\"aawp-product__description\">\n            <ul><li>VERSATILE STYLE \u2013 This multipurpose pocket blanket can be used as a picnic blanket, travel blanket, beach blanket, park blanket, camping...<\/li><li>WATERPROOF, LIGHTWEIGHT, COMPACT \u2013 The unique fabric of this outdoor blanket is puncture resistant and highly durable, a perfect companion...<\/li><li>EASY TO FOLD, EASY TO CARRY & EASY TO USE \u2013 The outdoor blanket has corner pockets you can fill with sand or stones to keep it to the...<\/li><\/ul>        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n\n    <div class=\"aawp-product__footer\">\n\n        <div class=\"aawp-product__pricing\">\n            \n            \n            <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/prime\/?tag=lifeonroute02-20\" title=\"Amazon Prime\" rel=\"nofollow noopener sponsored\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"aawp-check-prime\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/lifeonroute.com\/wp-content\/plugins\/aawp\/assets\/img\/icon-check-prime.svg\" height=\"16\" width=\"55\" alt=\"Amazon Prime\" \/><\/a>        <\/div>\n\n                <a class=\"aawp-button aawp-button--buy aawp-button aawp-button--amazon\" href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B01LON78E2?tag=lifeonroute02-20\" title=\"Check Latest Deals\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener sponsored\">Check Latest Deals<\/a>\n            <\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n\n    \n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Shade Tent<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s unlikely you\u2019ll be doing much sunbathing on your next camping trip but hear me out before dismissing this clever option. Tiny sun shade tents weigh less than \u00bc lb, pop in is seconds and collapse to the size of a sleep sack.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With top, bottom, and 3 sides walls of protection, these backpack carports will protect you gear from anything short of a downpour. Due to their small footprint it wouldn\u2019t be difficult to bring it under your hammock for extra protection, and the single open side is perfect for stowing your footwear and keeping it dry at night. Consider the benefits of having one of these on hand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p >No products found.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Contractor Bags<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Using a beefy 3mm thick contractor bag will provide protection for all your gear without fail. Access to your stuff will be difficult but for overnight storage it should work fine.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once bagged up your gear can safely sit on the ground without worry of it getting wet, you can also cut down a side and create more of a wrap than a bag, this will allow better access. If your overhead tarp is sufficiently large to cover it then using it as a simple ground sheet will prevent moisture from seeping up from the ground and the tarp does the rest.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Trimming down the bag to a more manageable size and converting it to a simple pack cover is also a popular option. A large bag like this can also function as a poncho protecting you and your pack if you were to be caught in some nasty weather before reaching camp.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n<div class=\"aawp\">\n\n            \n            \n<div class=\"aawp-product aawp-product--horizontal aawp-product--css-adjust-image-large\"  data-aawp-product-asin=\"B07NWC11T6\" data-aawp-product-id=\"13341\" data-aawp-tracking-id=\"lifeonroute02-20\" data-aawp-product-title=\"Hefty Load & Carry Heavy Duty Contractor Large Trash Bags 42 Gallon 26 Count\">\n\n    \n    <div class=\"aawp-product__thumb\">\n        <a class=\"aawp-product__image-link\"\n           href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B07NWC11T6?tag=lifeonroute02-20\" title=\"Hefty Load & Carry Heavy Duty Contractor Large Trash Bags, 42 Gallon, 26 Count\" rel=\"nofollow noopener sponsored\" target=\"_blank\">\n            <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aawp-product__image\" src=\"https:\/\/m.media-amazon.com\/images\/I\/51gQHL5L6gL.jpg\" alt=\"Hefty Load & Carry Heavy Duty Contractor Large Trash Bags, 42 Gallon, 26 Count\"  \/>\n        <\/a>\n\n            <\/div>\n\n    <div class=\"aawp-product__content\">\n        <a class=\"aawp-product__title\" href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B07NWC11T6?tag=lifeonroute02-20\" title=\"Hefty Load & Carry Heavy Duty Contractor Large Trash Bags, 42 Gallon, 26 Count\" rel=\"nofollow noopener sponsored\" target=\"_blank\">\n            Hefty Load & Carry Heavy Duty Contractor Large Trash Bags, 42 Gallon, 26 Count        <\/a>\n        <div class=\"aawp-product__description\">\n            <ul><li>LARGE GARBAGE BAGS\u2014This package contains 26 Hefty Load & Carry Heavy Duty large, black, unscented, 42 gallon contractor trash bags<\/li><li>HANDLE FLAPS FOR EASY LOADING\u2014Load, carry & tie up the toughest trash with the only trash bags to feature extra-long tie flaps with...<\/li><li>INDUSTRIAL-STRENGTH TOUGHNESS\u2014Composed of signature Hefty quality & thick 3 millimeter plastic, these Hefty trash bags help contain sharp...<\/li><\/ul>        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n\n    <div class=\"aawp-product__footer\">\n\n        <div class=\"aawp-product__pricing\">\n            \n            \n            <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/prime\/?tag=lifeonroute02-20\" title=\"Amazon Prime\" rel=\"nofollow noopener sponsored\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"aawp-check-prime\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/lifeonroute.com\/wp-content\/plugins\/aawp\/assets\/img\/icon-check-prime.svg\" height=\"16\" width=\"55\" alt=\"Amazon Prime\" \/><\/a>        <\/div>\n\n                <a class=\"aawp-button aawp-button--buy aawp-button aawp-button--amazon\" href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B07NWC11T6?tag=lifeonroute02-20\" title=\"Check Latest Deals\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener sponsored\">Check Latest Deals<\/a>\n            <\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n\n    \n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Hooks_and_Hangers\"><\/span>Hooks and Hangers<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>There are a number of different ways you can hang your gear from a ridge line, paracord or strap. Using carabiners, hooks, velcro straps or getting creative with knots and cord are all viable options.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Carabiners<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s hard to argue with carabiners, they\u2019re strong, lockable and lightweight. Every camper should have a few spares in their pack at all times. There are a few different styles including D-ring and S-clip and they are available in every color of the rainbow in locking and non-locking designs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Bring a couple of these on your next trip of various sizes. You\u2019ll need a medium duty carabiner to support a full pack of 25 to 30lbs. Light duty keychain size will hold most individual pieces of gear.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n<div class=\"aawp\">\n\n            \n            \n<div class=\"aawp-product aawp-product--horizontal aawp-product--css-adjust-image-large\"  data-aawp-product-asin=\"B06XD3H1FM\" data-aawp-product-id=\"13502\" data-aawp-tracking-id=\"lifeonroute02-20\" data-aawp-product-title=\"STURME Carabiner Clip Aluminum D-Ring Locking Durable Strong and Light Large Carabiners Clip Set for Outdoor Camping Screw Gate Lock Hooks Spring Link Improved Design Pack  9 Pack\">\n\n    \n    <div class=\"aawp-product__thumb\">\n        <a class=\"aawp-product__image-link\"\n           href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B06XD3H1FM?tag=lifeonroute02-20\" title=\"STURME Carabiner Clip Aluminum D-Ring Locking Durable Strong and Light Large Carabiners Clip Set for...\" rel=\"nofollow noopener sponsored\" target=\"_blank\">\n            <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aawp-product__image\" src=\"https:\/\/m.media-amazon.com\/images\/I\/51BFpC2LX5L.jpg\" alt=\"STURME Carabiner Clip Aluminum D-Ring Locking Durable Strong and Light Large Carabiners Clip Set for...\"  \/>\n        <\/a>\n\n            <\/div>\n\n    <div class=\"aawp-product__content\">\n        <a class=\"aawp-product__title\" href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B06XD3H1FM?tag=lifeonroute02-20\" title=\"STURME Carabiner Clip Aluminum D-Ring Locking Durable Strong and Light Large Carabiners Clip Set for...\" rel=\"nofollow noopener sponsored\" target=\"_blank\">\n            STURME Carabiner Clip Aluminum D-Ring Locking Durable Strong and Light Large Carabiners Clip Set for...        <\/a>\n        <div class=\"aawp-product__description\">\n            <ul><li>\u2705 LATEST IMPROVED DESIGN for 2024 - This is the latest design for 2024.
