    If you're on the fence, get the bigger one. I'm 6'4", 240 and I purchased the NA. I'm snug and I don't mind it. If the extra $40 is affordable, go for it.

    I'm more than a litte envious, good for you Hack. Can we get some more information about your trip? I realize we may sound a little persistent, but a little vicarious living can be good for us. :)

    I hammocked a little to close to the underbrush one trip and woke up with a chipmunk on my hip one morning. I moved and he ran off.

    I'd assume some temp control could be achieved if you flipped around in the hammock to get the cool breeze on your back. However, I'm still a new user so I haven't gotten to try it yet.
