Help with pads

[Ekul]

I just got my first Hennessy Hammock a few weeks ago. I have not slept in it yet and ordered a set of snakes skins for it.

I am I think i want to use the pad idea. I like the sound of the GG 1/4" 41" x 61" pad.

My question is how does the pad work with the opening on the Hennessy?

I have the HH ultralight backpacker a-sym

Go ahead and give 2QZQ 50$ for the zippermod and you will love pads and HH again. I hated the birth canal entry with pad.

Thanks shug.

I was wondering is it best to use my 0' C / 32' F liteloft thinsulate bag or a wool army surplus blanket. with the GG 1/4" pad. is that going to be good for early spring late fall weather?

Anyone ever put the Speer SPE in between the layers of a double layer hammock? Shug? I've used one in a single layer HH but have a DL BB now and thought I'd give it a try unless there is a good reason not too. Might help keep it situated better.

I'm not familiar with the army wool blanket. I think I would go bag .... you can zip in if it gets below 32ºF. Bring a hood or good toque with either.
