    Back Yard Hanging

    The last three nights with low 70s outside.

    Thought I needed more time in the hammock so that I can become "grizzled."

    But it occurred to me that I was already grizzled due to 50 years sleeping on the ground.

    One does not become grizzled in a hammock because they are so comfortable!

    You can become grizzled if you camp out in the low 40's or lower. That temp puts your gear setup to the test. Comfort isn't an issue, keeping warm is though!
