Hey. I was out the other week and found a spot where I'd like to sleep out under my new tarp, but I'm not sure how to go about setting it up. Basically, there's a flat piece of ground just big enough to lay a sleeping mat on, with steep grassy slopes on either side, and a dried up stream in the middle, next to the flat ground. (Although after the rains it's probably running again. Should be OK - the stream bed looked low enough). There are no trees for the ridgeline, so I'm wondering what's the best way of getting a secure line across the gorge?
Cheers for reading,

P.S. Could you recommend some bungee cords? They'll be for attaching the tarp to the ridgeline with the old prussic knot.
Total tarp newbie here but it does look fun and better than doing the tent thing.
