Hi guys:

After lurking around for a few weeks doing research, I finally settled on the Claytor Jungle Hammock. Just ordered two today.

I'm 6'5" and about 200#, so I needed something with plenty of room and the Claytor seems perfect. Plan on using them for backpacking around the Ozarks and primarily for float trips (I'm a kayak fisherman as well). Overnight float trips generally entail camping on gravel bars, so I am really looking forward to getting off the ground!! I imagine the shakedown cruise will be on a backpacking trip, though, as we have been absolutely inundated with rain this spring and it will probably be a while before the rivers are back in shape.

Thanks to all for the great information!
