Hi!
I've been looking into trying hammock camping for my shorter trips. I have a cheap gathered end hammock that I've been dragging with me on those trips and really like it (been sleeping in a tent on those trips btw). So now I'm looking for what I want to invest in for overnight trips in a hammock (for next year though!).
Use: Shorter trips from May to October, no winter camping, but temperatures might drop below 0C at night. I'm 5'6", 145 lbs.
- Hammock: Been looking at a Dream Hammock Sparrow, WBBB, Dutchware Chameleon? Needs to have a removable bugnet, don't think I need an top cover?
- Suspension: Already got Dutchware Beetle buckles
- Tarp: No ideas, but I don't want to invest in an expensive cuben tarp yet. Doors, no doors?
- Bottom insulation: I only have thermarest sleeping pads (that I'm guessing wont work in a hammock), so I'm looking at UQ but don't know what to look for.
- Top insulation: I already have a Cumulus Comforter M350 and a Montbell Down Hugger 800 #0. Will a comforter be too drafty?
Any tips will be very helpful!
