I was wondering what people were using for their ridgelines. My 1st cut was 50 ft, and it was obviously too long. So I'm thinking the maximum distance between trees that I can hang feasibly, is around 20 ft. Sometimes this means they are large trees, therefore the large seperation. A 36" diameter tree has a circumference of just under 10'. I'm thinking a 40 ft ridgeline will cover a worst case scenario. I know most cases I can get buy with less but I would rather carry a few grams extra than have to add an extension.
I am also using 8' 4" for my guy lines. I bought 50' of Triptease and divided it by 6.
