Hey guys, here`s the scoop.
Camping in the middle of last summer gave me the opportunity to try a friends DBL 1.7 BB. I used a thermarest prolite as insulation between the layers and a synthetic 0* bag within the hammock. I remember a few nights waking up with chills as the pad had either slipped or was simply not large enough to combat the wind and temperature. My feet were also cold as the only insulation at that end of the hammock was the sleeping bag within.
Nevertheless I loved the hammock and have a dbl 1.0 on the way!
So I`m looking at the KAQ New River as a solution to my insulation issue. For the price it seems amazing, it must be a synthetic of some sort? I`m also 6`5 so the `long` version is also appealing. I camp spring through to fall so nights might be approaching 0 but generally stay a few degrees above that.
Does the New River seem like a good idea for me? Would it enable me to ditch the pad and just use a sleep bag or tq?
