I am planning a NOBO thru-hike of the AT starting next spring. I am new to hammock camping and want to buy my gear now so I can get accustomed to it this summer. I am leaning toward a Warbonnet but I have not figured out insulation. I'm thinking there may be times when I want to stay in a shelter (in fact I hear you have to in parts of the Smokies) and I would like some sort of pad, but it sounds like ground pads and hanging don't mix too well. Any suggestions of a setup that will give me both a warm hang and a ground setup for the occasional shelter night?
