    HH and MG

    I actually haven't used the Mountaingoat Mesh Sleeves (they should arrive in a few days though)

    I like the Hennessey Snakeskins mostly because I have a few sets. But I also like them for my hammock as they are waterproof. My tarp however will get the mesh sleeves as it goes outside my pack and needs to be able to drip dry.

    So for me, I mix them.

    Oh yeah, the #4 HH SS fit my warbonnet 1.0 DL great (and that's with the space blanket kept between the layers.

    I know it's personal preference, but i need some help choosing between the mesh and silnylon snake skins. The mesh will allow a hammock/ tarp to breathe somewhat to remove condensation and the silnylon can be used as a rain catch and storage from you hammock. Are there anyother benefits or factors I should be thinking about?

    My extensive love for hanging is fairly new and havent slept with a tarp or uq yet( they're on the way. Thanks everyone for all your previous posts. They really help guys like me getting into this stuff!

    I would go with the mesh skins for the tarp and Silnylon for the hammock.
    I love the mesh skins from Mountaingoat gear. They are top quality and the price is great. I have some silnylon around the house, so I have a skin project in mind for my B-bird.

    There are TWO (enough for one hammock) in the package I bought.

    I just bought HH #4 off Amazon and they are great.
    I bought the mesh as noted for use on the tarp. Also very neat gear!

    take down is about 2 minutes (not counting wrapping the lines to keep tangles down)
