... Grimm, and I have been a "hammock-a-holic" for only a few days now, but I can readily see the addiction building. So much to look at here it is tough to stay focused.
A few nights ago, on a scout camp out, a friend let me borrow and try out his Hennesy Expedition ASYM ZIP, and I was hooked. It was a cool night in the low 60's. I experienced a little cold butt syndrome (only had my sleeping bag no pad), but it was awesome! My back felt amazing!
After that night, of course I ran out and bought something right away. (ENO Doublenest, with the Atlas straps). Big mistake jumping in without doing research I know... but then I found this place. So now the research begins. I am not a huge hiker, but I am definitely interested in working towards that as a goal, and working towards the greatest, cheapest, ultralightest, blingy-est, coolest hammock system available. I love the DIY aspect of this addiction as well! Also, I love the versatility of being able to pitch in places other campers cannot.
So on to the learning! Thank you all for your insight, and Shug for making me laugh...!
