    I've always kept them on the ground, save one night where there was a torrential downpour. I hung them on the ridgeline that night.

    I eat banana chips regularly on my hikes. I haven't ever tried the powder before but will have to look into that. Not sure what I might mix that with though.

    I would also agree with slight diagonal lay and higher foot end. Once I got those two pieces down, my hammock experience improved significantly.

    It is plenty. I’ve gotten the stuff from Ace to do other tarps with, but the small tube is more than enough for the tie outs.

    I was happy with my DIY Costco quilt until I tried others. Hard to go back after having one professionally made.

    Stingerz solves the problem for me. Can be tricky depending on the setup/trees since every hang varies a little. However, I’ve never looked back from using Stingerz.

    I'm actually impressed they did a followup to make a correction. That doesn't happen very often. Great job representing the community.

    This is the one thing that was missing out of the NX 270. I always wish I had something overhead just for storage.

    These neck fans are amazing. Used them with my Scouts all summer. Perfect for hammock camping. My batteries lasted over a week, using several hours each night.
