    Arrow A Windy & Goosy Tree Camping Adventure - The OPPOSITE Of Ultra Light!



    Yup. That is a 90L backpack stuffed to the brim with 3 ropes, harness, climbing hardwear, slings, a double portaledge with fly, 2 winterish sleeping bags, stove, food, water, clothes, etc, etc! I don't know what the weight was but I could barely make it through the door! It was supposed to be my wife's first tree camping adventure but she had to cancel so I decided to just keep all of the gear and food to see how well it carried for future reference.

    The extra weight was totally worth it for this particular trip into the canopy. Ha! I hope that this video will inspire more of you guys to push the limits of your hammocks (in a safe manner of course!). Enjoy!
