    VIDEO: 16º Hammock Hang + Extreme Cold Shelter

    Me and my ground dwelling buddy spent the weekend out in the woods for a relaxing time. I beat my personal best for cold weather hammock camping and he decided to try out a ground shelter he's used in Michigan to stay warm! Enjoy!

    Looks like y'all had some fun on your adventure. Congratulations on a new personal cold weather best. I'll take a comfy warm hammock over a ground bed any day.
    Everyone ought to believe in something....I believe I'll go set up the hammock!

    You and me both! He hangs in the warmer weather, but I'm slowly converting him to cold weather hammock hanging! I give him till next season and he'll be a year rounder too!

    Excellent video. Thanks for posting it. Grats on your low temp. Love the ground shelter part of it. Not my favorite way to sleep but was very informational.
