    I really like my Yellow hammock...

    It can serve as a signal if I ever need an emergency Air Evac

    I like all the color options. Grey/Charcoal if I had to choose one. Not into camo.

    Just ordered some multicam to make me a new ride! I don't like camo but i am fond of the multicam. Will have to post obnoxious flaunting pics of it when done.

    Same here.
    I like the stealthy colors, in general.

    However, Kokak's yeller hammock is fun, and the HH that I have in a similar yellow sure is cheery.

    I'm on a navy blue with burgundy accents kick right now. I jus' loves me that navy blue. Not sure why. But (raises index finger), if I had to choose between the three, I'd go with gray. I'm just not that into camo or olive green or brown. Now... (ponders) ...if I was on the run from someone, I'd be all over the camo in a heart beat. Camo in the summer and white in the winter. I'd probably do a reversible number in that case. Heh heh.

    Reality is-----
    any solid block of color stands out. Period.
    a block of black really stands out in the woods unless you say its dark out....but check this out...sea kayaking with some buds who are former military and who are into 'can you see me now'.....the black sea kayak at pitch dark night was visible...the red sea kayak completely dissapeard in the darkness...oh well.
    If a Warbonnet is offered in woodland camo I"D JUMP JUMP JUMP...only because I'm surrounded by rhododendron and laurel..in fact spent 1.5 hours clipping, crawling through the stuff to get to a spot on the map; black would stick out, coyote would stick out----digital better, marpat ok, woodland gone, borged. and again any solid color in my environment is just as bad (almost ) as a yellow or orange rig.
    My reality is different than yours; but 4-6 inches of dirt go a long way...don't think you can hang under dirt---thanks Mac! you can if it's a bridge

    I voted olive, but would love to get my hands on a BlackBird in MARPAT camo. Hint, hint.

    Olive green is OK but do you have a not so expensive option for camo? Or are you just going for the one color for all different hammocks and tarps?

    I like my tarps in a lighter grey (not an option in the poll).
    +1... I have (and love) this exact same color scheme too.

    I voted for Olive green since it suits my environment .
    Even if we don't have to stealch camp, it's nice to blend in .
