    It's as easy a paddle as we want .. lot's of places to put in ... mid-week is best .. let's keep it mind .. I have a winter expedition right after the Fla.hang so my time will be very limited ..

    Just what I thought .. with a Cuben Asymmetrical Diamond Tarp @ 4.3oz. ...10 -110z. sleep system .. that's comfortable as heck .. pretty nice in my book

    So I am 6.1 and 220lbs...If I hade one made out of M90 SL, would that hold me? I have been very seriously looking at the BIAS hammock set up.

    I don't use whoopies because I find them a PIA plus your only saving an ounce of weight any way.
    I miss my 4.8Lb base weight as a ground dweller...But I sure DON'T MISS the ground.

    It just might .. the M50 might as well .. BIAS has some good stuff .. you wouldn't go wrong there .. WL Snipe is another light option ..

    Whoopies is another case of HYOH .. I, as many, have no problems using them. Any time I can cut a ounce plus, without sacrificing safety,reliability and functionality ... I will.

    Here's my sub 5LB. Gear List Using a hammock .. Light and above ground

    With the M50 I can cut 4 oz's from my 5LB pack
