So I finally had my first hang in the outdoors. I accompanied some scouts on a Colorado river rafting trip. We traveled from SoCal and spent the night in Green River, UT. I slept like a baby. There were tons of mozzies so I wore a head net, which worked great, but I had already been eaten alive that night. We then traveled to Moab and got on the river.
We started at Dewey Bridge and spent one night at Hittle Bottom campground and two nights at Big Bend campground. Unfortunately, I had to sleep on the ground at Hittle Bottom, but there were a few places to hang at Big Bend. It was warm so I didn't use a pad/UQ. Worked great, although I did get a little cold butt syndrome one night in Big Bend when the temps dropped more than expected. I was too lazy too get out and set up my pad.
It was an awesome trip and temps didn't get too high. We actually enjoyed a rain/thunder/lightning storm during lunch on the river one day. We hit Arches NP on the way home. Some pics below.
