After airport security have found you camping like that a couple of times they will suspect you're a terrorist and everyone with a hammock will be subject to extended cavity searches. Or am I being paranoid?

That's the most daring stealth hang I've heard about in a long while! Nicely done.

Sleeping isn't a crime, or at least, it shouldn't be, even in airports. People sleep in concourses, cabbies sleep in their taxis, and in some airports (Heathrow), homeless people often come to the airport for a warm place to sleep. I think that's a great idea!

On the other hand, I'm not sure I could sleep with all that jet noise. How well-rested were you?

sleeping and camping out are two different scenarios. I don't see a difference in pitching a hammock and pitching a tent. Also, I doubt the trees along the aiport drives are open to public camping.

Maybe I'm just older then the rest of you guys. . .I have pretty strong views of property rights and asking permission for things like camping on property not designed for it

I don't think I'd feel safe enough to really fall asleep given the above number of people around. You're a lot braver than I am.

kycamper, you're right, each of us probably has a slightly different take on what is acceptable urban stealth camping, and to thine own self be true. I camp in national forests when I can, but that's not always possible. I can't afford even cheap hotels, so when I'm in an urban area, I usually catch a few winks in the forgotten places, like a patch of woods behind a strip mall or apartment complex.

the worst thing about the spot was the lites from security whirling around in the distance and oh the 105 temp at 11 pm but all in all i slept like a baby
