Introduction
We travel a lot, and we're always on the lookout for a comfy spot to hang our hammocks for an afternoon nap. We even built a special compartment in our camper van just to store those hammocks. But finding a perfectly spaced set of trees is not always a guarantee, so we usually have to improvise.
From Wyoming to Baja California to Key West to Kansas, here's what we've learned about hanging a hammock from various objects, including trees, porch beams and cars — and, perhaps more importantly, how to avoid damage anything in the process. Including us.
