    Well, yeah. If you're not using proper underinsulation, you're downright cold!

    Good on Survivorman!

    He'd only sleep in a hammock if it were made of broken glass.

    Actually, I saw Baer make a hammock out of some netting and hang it about 20' off the ground so the bears wouldn't bother him. The show was on a couple weeks ago.

    Bear made one out of vine. I will admit I like Bear more than Les personality wise. What ever happened to Ray Mears?

    I saw Bear make a hammock out of a long section of bamboo. Didn't look too comfortable, but kept him off the ground.
