I looked up and there it was, hanging from a rope. It was just a matter of following the rope to where it was tied off so that I could lower it to the ground.

Oh, I've found a bunch like that! It's actually a fairly common hiding technique. And it's amazing how difficult they can be to find, even if you have an idea what you're looking for. I hunted one that was a mile from the car and in the midst of some really open woods, like none of the trees had any leaves on them, it was all open and grey. Pretty sure we were dealing with a hanging hide, and sure enough we were, but it still took a half hour to find it. And when we did find it, we'd look at it and ask ourselves "Why did it take so long to find that? It's right THERE!" Long, long skinny cord you're more likely to hang yourself on than see.
