Well, first of all I am proud to say that I have not slept in my bed for about two weeks.

As I have been spending all this time in my DIY hammock, I have noticed how much of the material that makes up my hammock goes unused. My hammock is probably 54 inches wide, far wider than I think that I need. It's way long, too.

What is the shortest, skinniest (LIGHTEST) hammock you've all seen or discussed?

I'm 5'10 and about a buck eighty - I would like a very lightweight hammock just to bring on the trail for quick stops.

whatcha think?
