    Back Yard Hammock Hang Test at 17* F

    Check out my little backyard scene as I go over my hammock set up following a 17* F night. I survived comfortably so, all in all, it was a successful test. I am ready for Spring, Summer, and Fall conditions.

    I am new around here so I would appreciate any pro / con advice. Take care all.

    Set up looks great. Wish I had adequate for hanging trees in my backyard.

    - 24 in Minnesota hang

    Hey Nelson and I did a five night hang in January in northern MN. The low was -24 on the first night and below that on the fifth...do not recall exactly. Anyway, we used two pads and a bag inside a bag. AWESOME! Isn't it exilarating?
