Coffee?
+1 on that one. Most of the group hangs I've been on in the spring through fall, have all had rain on at least 1 of the days.

Hang high, stay dry
Go hard or go home
Awesome feeling isn't it!!

"If a man speaks in the woods, and there is no woman there to hear, is he still wrong?"
It rained all night last night on a quick overnighter at 1200 feet and I stayed dry. The sides of my hammock did get wet but that is because I was 1) using a small tarp 2) had set it too high and 3) the weatherman lied. (10 percent chance of rain!)
I have a Tadpole tarp ordered and on its way here. Let it rain, baby!
That's one of the reasons that I switched to an hammock: if you're getting wet from underneath in an hammock, you have bigger problems than just getting wet.

Congrats! Never liked a tent floor in the rain. Or worse someone wanting to run their fingers down the tent wall to play with the rain drops... GRRRRR!!!!
This is a very special kind of satisfaction. Kudos!
You're in Oregon, hanging at 1,200 feet (which probably means west of the crest of the Cascades), and you believed a 10% chance of rain.Originally Posted by CannonBeach
