Just had my first overnight trip using my new (actually used) Hennessey Expedition, in Rock Castle Gorge, VA. My friends told me it would be around 65-70* during the night, so all i took was an afghan to cover up with. The hike and the hang were both awesome. I was extremely comfortable in my hammock, but i didn't get the sleep i had desired. It turned out to be extremely windy, and i guess i am a light sleeper. All things considered, I had a great first trip and will continue to hang for sure. Although we did get in trouble with the National Parks Service for not having a backcountry camping permit, and we also made a fire, so all 6 of us got charged $75. lesson learned.
