They are not cheap, but from posts here, I know others pay that much for regular tents, so I guess if the quality and features are what you want, you have to pay for them.
The very informative set-up video made one thing clear to me IF I was going to be a "hanger". I'd lose the Ratchet mechanism altogether. 1 on one tent, 3 on the other. You could use light strong rope and a TRUCKERS Hitch and save a lot of weight.

When I hang my Byers Mosquito Hammock, I use tree straps SLEEVES you slide ropes thru to protect the bark. Doesn't even leave a mark. I think IF you showed the rangers them, they "might" give you a pass?
