    I've used a 26" wide Klymit Inertia XL in a hammock, it was better than a 20" wide self-inflating I had once, but...

    "It's the most usable 4.5 lbs. of rucksack you'll ever own."

    That thing weighs more than half my base weight :mellow: Definitely not for the ultralight backpacker.

    A Grand Trunk Skeeter Beeter Pro is $70 on Amazon, and looks pretty roomy due to the dual ridgeline for the netting. Add in some suspension and you have a hammock you can sit up in if you wanted to...

    I was so tempted buy a Clark NX! I love the idea of being able to zip up into "tent mode" if a little shower comes along, and see the stars otherwise.

    Btw, Wilderness Logics sells a gear pouch you...

    My iPad is way too big/heavy to cart around with me, so I guess it's okay it's not universal :p

    But is there any hope for an Android version? My Xperia Active is much tougher than an iPhone :D

    I love the comfort, but hammocks can also be better bang for the buck than a solo tent from a cost-to-weight factor, too. This does not mean i believe hammocks are absolutely lighter than all tent or...

    what sort of budget are we talking? basic ripstop nylon is pretty cheap even locally.

    Or, you could use trashbags or an emergency blanket if you don't mind the vapor barrier part.

    Right now I'm using an exped multimat and like it, it's 39" wide and so wraps around nicely when in the hammock, and (for me) hasn't been super bunchy. Works down to the 50s, haven't had it colder...

    that's a great job, I love it. And it's not much heavier than my MacCat Deluxe o.O (and a few inches bigger in either dimension, too)

    Definitely loads cheaper lol. Again, nicely done.

    Comfort :)

    I can still sleep on the ground if I need to, though, but my back is much more fond of a hammock bed :boggle:

    Plus, I've been enamored with "hammock-tents" ever since I first saw a...
