Ummm. Indulgent gear is a lot of $$. Including mine.
Many folks here are comfortable with simple gathered end hammocks. I'll grant that UQs are slightly specialized, what with their own suspensions. But, for the top quilt, your sleeping bag can be re-purposed even if it is a half-zip mummy style. Find a longstanding thread , newbie hammock setups hehttp://www.hammockforums.net/forum/s...ead.php?t=8921re on rigs at different price points. I can readily find comfort for less than $150. And dry comfort for under $200. Plus, of course, the sleeping bag.
