I will be using this for back country elk hunting 1-3 nights at a time. Will only be hiking in 2-5 miles so weight is not a huge deal. I am 5'6" short and weigh 155lbs. Time frame is September with temps at night getting down to 25 degrees and day time highs can be 100. Also sometimes it will rain incessantly for days. I also want to have enough tarp to be able to cover my gear and possibly cook and hang out for a few days if it is raining terribly. Also I am brand new to this and need a fairly easy set up. What say ye???

Why not go with the superfly, a little cheaper than the mambajamba w/ door kit. The superfly has the doors sewn in.

never layed in a clark, but imo the warbonnet set up will be better! 1+ on the super fly though doors sewn on and your good to go!!

[Olydog09]

Excellent call on the Superfly. Here is the WarBonnett adjusted with the superfly instead of the Mambajamba with door kit.

This is exactly the kind of info I am looking for. Thank you.

Also the Warbonnet offers suspension options as line/strap or adjstable webbin. What are the differences and advantages of each?

[Ratdog]

Line strap you are tying knots.

Adjustable webbing is a strap and cinch buckles, set it and forget it. Very easy.

The superfly will give you a nice large dry area as long as the rain isn't going sideways, but even then it is pretty roomy

Webbing and buckles are so easy.

One day I wanted to show off my new hammock to family that was visiting but like sharing vacation photos one ought not to bore company so it needed to be quick -- I grabbed the Warbonnet straps and buckles.

I can't imagine in my wildest dreams getting wet in a superfly. Even sideways rain. My wife uses one, way too big for my liking, and she is absolutely tucked in. We have been through some killer T-storms and she has stayed absolutely dry. My diamond shaped claytor was challenged. I had to hang on for dear life.

Does anybody have experience with the Cyaltor Jungle Hammocks? If so how do they stack up to the Clarke and WarBonnet models?
