Cowboy Camping in a hammock, what is in a name?

[SGT Rock]

One thing I love to do when weather permits is to camp without a tarp. "Normal" backpackers have a term, Cowboy Camping, to describe when they are camping without a tent by just laying on the ground. For years I have been trying to come up with a catchy term for hanging without the tarp. Since hammocks started in South America and Spanish is the dominant language down there, I've thought Vaquero Camping would be appropriate. But I'm not sure it is the best term. I was hoping some of you had some good ideas.

I'd call it hammocking. I only use a tarp if it calls for rain.

Gaucho camping. A Gaucho is a South American cowboy.

Actually, that sounds like some sort of pork filled fried burrito thing at Taco Bueno...

Bajo las estrellas= under the stars, or maybe just star camping= estrellas campamento? Which I've been doing for the last three nights in my back yard BTW.
