Hi all
I have just got back from a canoe/hammocking trip.
We base camped at a lock by a canal, I had picked up a DD hammock and tarp the lunch time on the day that we left. I have never used either before.
I probably made all the obvious mistakes like hanging the hammock so high that I could not get into it etc
The canoeing was great as we had brilliant weather (by we I mean seven canoeists)
First night in the hammock was interesting, much more comfortable than I thought but my thermarest spent the night moving around leaving me with cold spots.
Night two one of the tent guys announced that he had an underquilt with him and would I like to borrow it. Did I!! oh yes.
Night two warm and cosy I slept like a log for nine hours
I am now fully converted to hammocking but I need an underquilt, can't afford one so I will have to improvise.
My untidy set up
