    I love the picture on that page. It has the hammock in the foreground and a black bear out of focus in the background trying to decide if there's filling in his burrito yet. Seems like a strange choice to me.

    Bought one and cheap @$20. Be warned, however, advertising and packaging states 11'6" = 138", but is really 9'7" = 115". Oh well... like an Eno Double - good hammock. Still very nice for the price. Planned on giving my old Eno Double to my niece, upgrading to a longer gathered end, but now, I'll probably give her the Woot since my Eno is tricked for my UQ already. Anyway, always nice to have another communal lounger hammock in camp. Can't go wrong @$20...

    I use the Yukon, too as my first choice of nylon hammock unless I'm doing something where I'm fitting everything into a backpack. Then I compromise on comfort a little and take one of the smaller hammocks.

    Really? I have two of the Yukon doubles, not bought on Woot, though. They measure as advertised, unlike the eno, which seems to measure about what it would have been before sewing all the seams, so it's quite a bit shorter than it was listed. I wonder if Woot is selling a different model. I ordered the tarp in Olive and it came through in Black, which turned out okay, since I liked the Black, but it wasn't what I ordered.

    My double measures correctly. Maybe you got the "Made in the USA Camo Hammock"? http://www.woot.com/offers/made-in-t...ref=cnt_wp_0_1

    Fishbait, One cold 19deg F night a friend had been waiting on others to bring her camping equipment. They did not show till the next morning. The two of us combined pushed about 365lbs in the Yukon with bugnet. I slept pretty warm that night too.
    Sup?

    Yikes!! Never rely on someone else to bring needed equipment. I would say the 365 pushed and surpassed the advertised weight limit of the hammock.
