    Lightbulb How high have you been? (in your hammock of course) ;o)

    So I came across this awesome video



    And it got me wondering...

    How high have you been? Have you ever hung your hammock high in the trees or off the side of a ledge, etc...

    Lets hear some stories and see some pics!

    I have never hammocked before...

    ...Except in my house. Height 5"

    ...but

    I am absolutely going to do this! A lot of people do tree (rope) climbing here in Japan for fun when they are auto-camping. That will be an even better way to enter and exit!
