    Below 0° sleeping.

    I receive my Hammock Gear under quilt on the 14 of Feb. for an Adirondack NY hang with some friends on the 15th, talk about close.

    Adam and Jenny helped me out by getting my 0° incubator to me in the nick of time.

    The temp on the first night was only -1°F and the next night was -7°F. Both nights were spent in comfort. Although the second night I had a problem with condensation, that can be solved by exhaling in the day time.

    Very happy with my purchase and the service from the my friends at Hammock Gear.

    Great piece of gear. Looks like you got it just in time to give it a good testing out. Wish we had some snow in Georgia.
    Everyone ought to believe in something....I believe I'll go set up the hammock!

    I sounded off with a "hooo buddy", and know everybody on my street including my wife thinks I'm nuts.

    Thank you.
    I just need to do something about the condensation.

    Pollywog Pond, just north of the Fish Creek camp ground. I was up there with NFA and his friends. Twice a month you lucky dog. Now I need to look on a map to find Pigeon Lake. But I don't think I will be able to make it, I took too much time off last week. I'll be looking forward to reading your trip report.
