    what temp is that rig rated to? I mean, down to how cool will it keep you comfy?

    Well I had a spectacular fall (no pics) at about 2 am in Abol Pines campground just before starting the 100 mile wilderness. I was using my HH Adventure racer with dynaglide whoopie slings. I had already used it about 5 nights with no problem but before heading to Maine I decided to redo the attachment. Big mistake. I used a heated nail to burn a second hole in the hammock ends like the larger Hennessys. The stress on this second hole caused the light weight nylon that the Adventure Racer is made of to separate and tear the end off. I was able to make a gathered end hammock on the spot at 2 in the morning. It held up through the 100 mile wilderness. If it had not I would have had to go to ground without a pad. I only had one of Mac's IX underquilt which worked great by the way.

    Southmark,

    No pictures!? That will teach you to set up your camera on a tripod before turning in, with a motion sensor shutter and flash!
