I'm pretty fond of my portable hammock stand made from extendable paint poles. It's something I leave in the back of my truck, so I can hang anywhere I am. It's nice when camping in places where hanging from trees isn't allowed, or there are no trees at all. It really opens up the opportunities on road trips.

That sounds awesome. Do you have a pic you can share?

It's a tensahedron stand that needs a single anchor to support itself. I normally use the hitch on my truck, but have tied to exposed roots, fence posts, door jambs, large rocks, etc...

Holy crap! I never would've thought of this. I'm gonna build one immediately
