While laying awake at four in the morning in my homemade parachute silk hammock freezing cold I wished I had a bottom quilt, but then I thought well I don't want to Carry the bottom of the sleeping bag simple conclusion I'll use a quilt like Ray jardine. So why not just have the Bottom quilt cover the entire hammock and have a zipper on the edges. Anyways I was just thinking could I make a mummy shaped parachute silk bag to support my weight then baffle all the way around. Basically like a mummy bag with cords on either end holding me up. Maybe mesh over the face. So this way when I do the pct in two years if there are no trees in socal I can just use it on the ground as a sleeping bag with out any extra weight. Just a 4am thought.
