Have you found a good way of attaching the underquilt to the Hennessy? I always find it hard to get it to stay in place.Snugpak under blanket to go with the Hennessy Expedition asym I got for Xmas. First sleep out in it tonight

I'll take some photos in the daylight tomorrow Sara. Basically 6 mini carabiners is what I've used

Have a good night, it looks to me like you’ll be cozy. And sensibly, you’re within distance of civilisation. I’ve had a couple of disasters with UQs, one was a converted summer down bag that I snagged and tripped over while getting out for a pee in the night, resulting in huge clouds of feathers and equally huge clouds of foul language. The other, I just felt a “ping” and thought a knot was settling. Within 10 mins, the dreaded cold butt, shoulders, knees etc syndrome had settled in and a bleary eyed shine of my torch revealed the UQ on the ground
. That was a PITA, I tried hanging it back up with paracord because the shock cord was shredded. It didn’t go well, and was a good exercise in the gaining of experience just after I really needed it.Accepting defeat or facing a totally miserable night, I sheepishly woke my good lady, who was in a tiny tent with two dogs, and asked if she’d accept a complete idiot husband into the fold for the rest of the night.
I have a hennessey and the snugpak UQ, I also use mini carabiners, the shock-cord works well with them. I like it a lot and it really works well for me. I was surprised how well considering the size of the hammock. I like your set up but I usually use a bigger tarp higher up so I get a bit of a view.
I'll do them in sequence Sara
Firstly the B cords are attached by mini S carabiner to behind the suspension fixings

Then the A cords come over the top of the B cords to the ridge line and joined with another S biner

The tabs closest to the asym corner are attached to the tie outs with S biner
I've found I don't need to use the other tabs yet but could use another S biner to attach them to the hammock body and just pull the net zips to either side of them
