Hello all,
I have been doing a bit of research for the last week on hammock camping and I am very interested. I am putting together kit to start out with.
For now I am going to go with the Hammock Bliss, Bed Bug Free.

I Really like the integrated bug net, and the reason Im going with hammock bliss, is I believe I will like their flat lay design. I wish it had a gear bag for the cord that supports the net, but I believe that is something I can add easily later, plus there is a side pouch.
I think for me to get a true understanding of how comfortable this hammock can be, it would be a good idea for me to get a pad with it, plus I kind of need one for general tent camping anyway so ALPS self inflating pad, seems like it will fit if I get the regular size. I am 6'2" but I will most likely grab a pillow of some sort.

The other thing I think I should probably get just to keep the trees healthy is the Hammock Bliss straps. I believe these are the better priced straps from what I have seen. But I would love to hear about any other suggestions.

These products pretty much hit my budget at the moment. I wanted to bring my hammock and a tent trip, more or less to try during the day, and If like it, ill sleep the night if the weather is good enough.
I have a tarp from camping, and some rope for that. Once I commit to hammock camping, Ill invest in more lightweight materials for protection from the elements.
I mostly camp in the Adirondacks and the Poconos. Please let me know If I am going about this all wrong, or If you might suggest I switch up certain priorities.
Thanks!
