    Hanging Newbie from So Cal

    Hey all... Found this site via Shug videos on You Tube. Ya buddy...

    Avid hiker, backpacker, Scout leader, and naturalist. Looking to get comfy in my old age, and perhaps lighten the load a bit. Yup desert camp is out, but hoping to experience what you all are with hanging.

    Currently looking for a set up that has ease of set up, bug proof, and can permit a 6 foot, 200lbs guy to get a great nights rest. Also, I happen to be a side sleeper who flops from one side to the other.

    Let the research begin...
