So,
I have pretty much a full setup for UL tent camping. My base weight is between 12-13.8# depending on the season, but I think I would like to try an
AT section hike with a hammock this winter starting at Springer in mid December.
As far as sleeping gear, I have a montbell #1 spiral, tyvek bivy sack, blue pad, regular neoair. Also have a campmor extended poncho tarp IE 5x9.
From what I have seen a 8x10 or 9x9 tarp in a diamond seems to be the better tarp setup unless I figure out an opt closed tarp.
I am 6-3 and about 225.
So what ultralight hammock would you recommend and do I need anything else like a different tarpt etc ??
Would I be better off building one ?? Building a silnylon tarp is a no brainer.
Also has anybody figured out a hammock design that could be used as a bug tent you could use on the ground similar to the mld solo design.
Thanks in advance
