Hello all
I’m new to this whole Hammock world and I gotta say I cannot wait to start hanging to sleep.
I’m in Australia and most of the time our conditions are not as cold as you get so sorting out which pad/sleeping arrangement gets a bit confusing…..
As soon as he’s back only I’ll be ordering a Blackbird Double 1.0 and I think a thin pad will suffice for the general temps I’ll be sleeping in. Weather conditions will vary from a worst case 3∘C
[37.4∘F] to a more likely 15-20∘C
[59-68∘F] mark on average. I’ll not be using the hammock in winter.
Should I up (Or should that say down
.) the rating of sleeping bag I’ll be using. I know it will be trial and error but I’m a real minimalist on gear so was hoping to try a 1/8” CCF pad first with a good sleeping bag.
Would a -5∘C
[23∘F] rated down sleeping bag suffice for 15∘C
[59∘F] night temps with a slight breeze when used with a very thin 1/8’ CCF pad ??
Any help appreciated.
