I couldn't ask for a better backyard than yet. You are a lucky person to have such a place to hang. I am envious.
Camped out last night with my brother and brther-in-law, got down to 15 degrees, windy, and snowy but surprisingly I was quite warm in my DIY hammock, I would have still been warm even if it was very much colder. I was using my DIY down under quilt, my old down army, mummy bag and a down, 20 degree bag. The site was nice, surrounded by hardwood in the front and giant ledges behind. This was a practice run to get used to cold weather camping again and try out winter hammock in for the first time. I always used tents until now. I am still a little weary of the hammock in real cold weather or ruff conditions but looking forward to trying.
Sorry the pics aren't great, took them with my phone.
Here is a pic of my hammock in the morning...

Love the comparison of you and your brother.
