Last time I had to go to ground, it was miserable. But I didn't quite "go to ground", a buddy of mine had a cot and was like, "it's kinda like a hammock, only the suspension is stronger!" I figured...

A bit different on my tails of things that bumped me in the night.

I learned very quickly to hang my hammock a little higer. High enough that I would need to stand on a log or a stump to get in,...

Man, that really sucks. I only bought this hammock, ENO double about 5 months ago! Not cheap, and now I have to buy a new one? Sigh.

And just to clear the air, I did take my hammock down when not...

It was only a matter of time, since I use my hammock in Thailand, Fiji and where I live most of the time: the big island of Hawaii. I noticed it just the other day, there is mildew on my hammock at...

You could always just go with this, http://www.hammockforums.net/forum/showthread.php?t=28631 then. Seems like a loophole to my mind, as well as being awesome.

Except that "discrimination" is too strong of a word, and I can't think of one that fits to replace it with.

But in the past two weeks, I started a series of small trips (wwoofing if any of you...

Necessity became choice. I go alone because there's no one that wants to go out into the woods for 3-4 days at a time without wifi or cellphone service and sleep in a hammock.

Now I guess I...

How well would a thermal blanket work? The problem with a lot of stuff is that it's going to be harder to source. Can't order stuff online either.

Gotta kinda work with what I have and can...

Can you someone copy the article and post it here? It's for members only and I don't want to become a member.

I've seen a lot on this forum about staying warm, all the tips and tricks that everyone uses. That's great, but I have the opposite problem. I need to keep cool.

I'm hanging in the tropical jungle...

I've slept in mine for the past 2-3 years as my primary bed, most of it outdoors. I haven't had any problems with rips/holes/tears or anything. Now, tarps and netting on the other hand... I've had to...

I've hiked/bikepacked extensively over the emerald triangle area and you will have no problem finding trees to hang in the northern northern part of the state. Even inland.

Hello to redwood guy,...

Sef, I used to live inthe same area, and the answers to most of your quesitons are, "they don't know either". Just do it. I've learned very quickly that the quickest way to find an answer is to do it...

1. Keep me dry, I live on hawaii, if it fails to keep me dry, then it's not technically a "tarp" no matter what the manufacturer says.

2. Something that's durable and doesn't get a hole in it...
