- If you hammock camping enough, eventually you will come across a situation where the trees are less than ideal. How do you set up a hammock with only small saplings? How do you set up a hammock with no trees at all? Here are my tips and suggestions to do Hammock Camping the right way. Watch this video and discover some advanced hammock camping techniques.
Here is a good hammock that I have used for years:

Loved the desert set up. Bad week I needed that laugh. The rest of the video was great. I'm new to hammocks so, I enjoyed it immensely.
I was expecting you to create a Tensa4 type hammock stand with saplings and paracord but you still managed to get the job done. Thanks for the fun video.
I was wondering how you wanna show setting up a hamak with no tress in 30 seconds... Yep, you got me
hahaha loved it! both helpful and fun to watch! really liked the knots too! great vids man
I'm too much of a "tosser & turner" to sleep in a hammock. But is is still pleasurable to watch the different methods used. Keep breathin'.
🤣🤣🤣 So much for me setting up camp in the AZ desert which is why I was watching
Hahaha! Gotcha!! Love AZ by the way. Beautiful!
The camera person had a better time than Jason did. Especially when the bark gave way. Lol. Great job
The end was pretty funny, I was not expecting that 😂
Gotcha!
Thank you for this, because this is often my reality. I love hammock camping, it's even my sleeping system of choice in my house. But out where I like most places are not ideal conditions for stringing up a hammock.
Love the videos! Keep them coming!
Very detailed explanation. Thanks!
i once tied each ends of my hammock between 2 landcruiser bullbars . hammock camping on the beach is awesome btw :)
Sweet!
Instead of paranoid use mule tape the stuff you use to pull wire thru pipe with. Very strong and it doesn't stretch.
Title "No trees? No problem!" and the proceeds to use trees... xD
You dont really need to do the bracing lines for those trees..
I'm an arborist and those trees can hold your weight just fine...I tend to hang my hammock up higher on trees that thin and that way my hammock will reach that 30° angle . They might bend but as long as they're relatively green and not terribley thin. You can also just lean back with the tree straps to test it before you put up the hammock
My girlfriend complains a lot about camping. Do you have a "Stay at Home" knot you could teach us? 😳 Or an "I can't hear you" knot? 🤣🤣🤣 Maybe a "Zip it" knot? 🤔 Please???
Good video Jason. ❤
Very cool video and Beautiful nature. 🙂😃🙂
Thanks!

Ah, the Alan Kay method of camping....
No Trees ???? More like only saplings available. Not sure about advanced setup , I had to do almost the same back in the late 50's with my dads old U.S. Army Jungle Hammock. Only I tied several of small saplings together with the hammocks suspension line. Fortunately I had a sufficient ( not great but OK ) sized tree at the other end. Since then I like to to locate a proper area to hang in. A worse problem is to many trees , especially if you believe in the "Leave no trace philosophy ". No Trees , a Trekking Pole at each end with something under the hammock as a ground cloth. Turning your hammock into a Bivy. I really like your idea of the Cowboy Camping , lot simpler and easy. LOL
Good tips Jason
Here is a good method for setting up a hammock on the ground:
Any well built hammock should do, but I use a double bottom Warbonnet XLC hammock, a 10x13 Aqua Quest Defender tarp, a German surplus ground cloth (8' long x 3.5' wide), shock cord and titanium tent pegs (these are with me no matter if I'm hanging or on the ground).
The only real modifications to the hammock is by sewing 550-cord loops on the bottom 4 corners and 1 at the center points for tent pegs and then 550-cord loops sewn on the 4 corners of the bug netting to keep it raised.
The ground sheet is obviously to protect the floor just like with any tent, or for my gear and boots when I'm hanging.
The double fabric bottom is also great to keep a sleeping pad from sliding around.
Same knots I use to secure my kayaks to my vehicle rack.
What impresses me most about hammocks is the risk of neck injury if they collapse. So I think I'll use extra extra precautions when setting up.
The trick is to be really drunk and/or have a fat girl under you. Trust me...been doing this for 30 years 👍
A little extra rope for the tree's, sweet the comfort of hammocks, like a bed , & a chair & a swing , : ) 🏕
Yes and I used to tip my helmet back a little on my head and sleep inside it too
Ugh, you actually got me to watch to the very end to find out how to do it without trees.
Hahaha!! Sorry about that.
@@ONThree I was like, "Well, there's less than a minute left in the video now, so this must be a REALLY fast and slick method."
Lol I like the treeless one. I was trying to workout how you would do it
Gotcha!!
1:22 roger that!
here in the desert we just hang our hammocks between cacti
Nice!
@@ONThree haha it was a joke, but i mean, you gotta do what you gotta do, and i would try it to get away from the scorpions, rattle snakes, and everything else that tries to kill us out here
i carry 2 10 ft silicone treated traps. one is used as a hammock or a tent. all i have to do is untie the hammock head and its a one piece tarp.
So the rope work was pretty interesting but I didn't like the teaser at the end
Come on man! You know that was a good one!
Is that the music of cicada I hear? I hate those things!!! Loved the video - Nanna
Yes. They were pretty loud this year.
Hilarious!
It’s a knot for the line to the bow of a boat, as far as I know.
I always wondered how to tie a trucker's clock...who wants it?!?
What neck knife is that?
It is the Tusk from Dozier Knives
I call them "small trees" and prefer them to the "big trees" that are much more dangerous if a big branch breaks down and falls on you. If the trees start bending - you should NOT tie your tarp to the same trees or else it will sag and accumulate water and possibly leak through. If there is a stable tree right behind it - tie the tarp there, but if there isn't - you shouldn't hang the hammock there at all.
How to clear land while laying down lol.

😆
Open ground break out the tent
That was supposed to say para cord. Sorry ,fat fingers
Be nicer to the trees!! 😢
This was a waste of time considering the number of legit videos that aren’t lying in the title.
Come on man! No sense of humor?
By. using paracord on those trees you will cut through the bark. Not a good practice.
The only correct thing you did in this video was to show the proper way to tie a truckers hitch.
Hey! At least I did one thing right. I’ll keep practicing.
Click bait grrrr
Hahahahaha!!
Talikg... talking... talking...
I admit, I watched the whole thing to see how you suggested setting up with no trees. FYI, it can be done with pickets and poles. I wanted to see your method. Funny, but not useful…🤣
Ha! Gotcha!!
"No trees? No problem! Advanced hammock camping setup" I was going to subscribe.. But you got several trees, I thought - Then I watched until he laid down on the ground at the end.. Talking about b*llS**t headings. Get real
Come on! No sense of humor? I used saplings and not full grown trees to set up my hammock. I try not to take life too seriously. You should subscribe. You won’t regret it.
