    SOLD: Lawson Blue Ridge Camping Hammock

    (this is my first attempt to sell anything here, so let me know if I am doing it right)

    This hammock has just been on an overnight trip and set up a few times in my yard. It is a solidly built hammock, but it is also heavy. You can get quite comfortable in it once you are used to it though. Do a search, some people love them, some people hate them...It has spreader bars on each side and a rainfly like a tent. and you can also set it up on the ground (gasp!) It might have a little dust on it from forest sock foot, but I see no holes, stains, wear of any kind.

    I have 2 of these, and I cannot rationalize keeping both of them after buying so much gear on Black Friday.

    $75 shipped with confirmation. Paypal only.

    I can post photos if you want, but it is 100% stock, just like this one:http://www.lawsonhammock.com/

    Specifications:

    Total Weight: 4.25 lbs.
    Length: 90 in.
    Width: 36 in.
    Packing Width: Packs to: 22 x 6 in.
    Weight Limit: 250 lbs.
    Styles: Forest Green

    Comes with:

    Large no-see-um net canopy
    Hammock body made of ripstop nylon pack cloth
    Waterproof nylon rain tarp
    Waterproof nylon border on the canopy protects against water blowing up under tarp
    Strong aluminum-alloy poles and shock corded aluminum archpoles for the canopy
    Double coil nylon zipper
    Two interior storage pockets inside hammock
    Nylon rope (for tie outs)
    O-ring in ceiling for hanging light
    Brass-plated grommets reinforced with nylon webbing
    Stuff sack
    4 aluminum stakes

    Also, if I am off on the price, let me know as I have never seen a used one for sale. I am flexible.

    Hey there.
    First I used a DIY quilt, and it really didn't fit. Then I used a slightly deflated Alps Mountaineering pad and/or CCF. It worked great. A pad actually works better in this particular hammock than any hammock I have used. The spreader bars keep everything wide and tight, so it does not bunch up like a gathered end hammock. Then I graduated up to a KAQ New River, and it worked pretty well after some minor adjustments.

    It lays pretty flat, but it was hard to capture it in that photo. I can get comfortable in it on my side too, which is one of the things that I like about it. I have never tried to get on me belly though.
