Instead of a single cable, tie up a sling/cable run. This gives you a much wider living area. Rather than using existing trees, you could, if you’re actually serious, set posts in the ground with concrete.
Space will be tough to find. A national forest is probably your best bet. Abandon forests roads are basically secluded narrow clearings. In most cases you can stay in the same spot for two weeks. So if you make it the first few weeks undetected then you’re good. Still, I doubt anyone would find you on most of these roads.
Bring a large tarp in addition to a tent. The tent can be for sleeping, but the tarp serves as a sort of daytime living quarters. It’s where you take care of chores (cleaning) and where you live during the day. A hammock is a good idea for relaxing, but it may not work out, location wise. I’d bring a mat to exercise on, just to pass the time.
The rule of thumb for water during disasters is 1 gallon per day. So you’ll need 28 gallons. Bring plenty of junk food and lots of entertainment (books, games, etc.). I’ve been through a few hurricanes (Katrina and Ida), so I’ve gone weeks at a time with no power, job, or place to go. Mental health is extremely important in those scenarios.
