Sleepwear and the UltraLight mindset

[OneClick]

In my experience, you should tighten the shock cord up so that it raises your hammock about 2 feet above its resting position. This ensures a nice seal between the hammock and your under quilt. In theory, even though the inner lining of your under a quilt is nice and taught, the differential cut will still expand and allow it loft as intended.

To solve drafty ends, when I first get to camp I usually set up my hammock and my other quilt, put all of my remaining gear inside of it, and adjusted so that they are snug but not overly tight.

As far as my water breaks are concerned, I have found that small strips of an old cotton T-shirt work the absolute best. They easily absorb and divert water straight to the ground. I generally put them just under my tarp and just before my main hardware water breaks. Works like a charm!

+1 to all of that!

+1, definitely sounds like the UQ needs to be adjusted, and this is a good technique/guide on how to make sure it's a good fit. Also, nothing wrong with hopping in with your clothes on and checking the UQ fit before it's sleepy time.
