So, I'm on a scout campsite near the main entrance at night. The moon is not out, it is overcast and there's enough of a forest makes the place extra dark.
My hammock, strung between two trees close to a path at night, handily strung at neck level is a bit of a hazzard - especially since anyone with a torch is looking at the ground for tree roots etc and not at the stealth bomber shaped hammock.
I got round it on that occasion by using LED lit pegs from poundland (4 for £1) however I'd like something a bit more perminant, and was thinking of adding these to the ends of the hammock at the tip of the fly to make it more obvious. That and adding reflective fluorescent paracord instead of the stock black stuff.
