As many of you, I'm never really "finished" with my gear. I have a GREAT kit for Winter (no bugs) camping.
But for the warmer weather I'm considering the possibility of upgrading my gear to make it lighter. Currently my choice is limited to:
WBBB 1.1 SL (21.75 oz)
Hammock Gear 20 degree TQ (17.95 oz)
Hammock Gear 20 degree UQ (19.25 oz)
Superfly (23.65 oz with sleeves, lines, Dutch Bling, etc).
That makes my summer kit 82.30 oz or 5.16 lbs!
I listed the gear above because these are the items I currently own. So, if you had the items listed above and wanted to lighten up for the summer, where would be largest weight savings be for the least amount of money? Sadly, cuben fiber is probably out of my price range, so I need some other ideas.... What do YOU use to hang in the warmer months (using a tarp and a bug net)?
I want to try and hang in the muggy and bug infested South (Alabama to be exact). This will be a first. How do you keep cool with the high humidity?
