    Potomac UQ on a HH Expedition

    Hello everyone,

    I am new to the forum and I am thinking about getting the Potomac for my HH. How do you get into the bottom entry with the Potomac? Is there a slit in it like the JRB Nest?

    I was also looking at the Lost River 2/3 UQ. This seems like it would definitely leave the opening available on the hammock but I am not sure how it attaches and it is will work well on a HH.

    Thanks in advance.

    No the Potomac dose not have a bottom entry, it hangs on shock cord and you simply pull it to one side, climb in the hammock and let the shock cord pull it back in place. The Lost River can be made to work, there are several folks using the Lost on HH's but it is not specifically made to fit a HH like the Potomac is.

    Yep, just got back from a hike and am still trying to catch up on the emails from the past few.

    This question seems like it has been answered definitively, but I can testify to the fact that the KAQ reliably will just bounce into place after entry in a HH Expedition, as that's the exact setup that I used for years.
