how often do you hang?

[BlackHand]

excluding the full timers that sleep in their hammocks every night because their answer is obvious, how often do you hang in your hammock typically? realized today i havent hung my hammock in about 2 weeks

[canuck_kayaker]

I'm not a full timer (YET) but try to sleep in my hammock as much as possible. Typically 4 or 5 nights a week.

Not being married is awesome!

Generally 3 times a week.

My hammock is located next my house over looking lake huron so I spend at
East a few hours every day that it is not raining or snowing. Trying to figure out how is put on in my office so I can relax between patients

Every weekend. If I can't get to the woods I spend the nights in the back yard.

I try to go out for a hike and hang every two weeks. In reality, over the last two years, I've averaged closer to every three weeks. My philosophy is that I have to hike and hang to justify all the money I've spent on hiking/hammock hanging. I've invested major freaking simoleans - beaucoup bucks.

A new pack, new hiking boots, underquilts, topquilts, cuben fiber tarp, Amsteel, Zing-It, Dutchware, puffy clothes, water filters, stoves - I've probably dropped $3000 in the last two years, easily (and it's probably more). There's nothing cheap about this sport (or hobby, for you non-hiking car campers).

And that's just gear purchases - gas and food ain't cheap.

I hear you loud and clear. I don't even want to know what I've put into this hobby. But I look at it from a health standpoint too and that help justify it a little more

I spend typically a couple hours in my lounging hammocks ( eno single and doublenest) 4 days a week. And my camping hammocks once or twice a month overnight ( hh or wbbb) dependent on the season. Sometimes way more sometimes less

The health standpoint is a major plus - knowing you're going on a hike that will give you a tremendous workout makes all the money worth it. And learning how to survive in the wilderness is another thing I value - that's worth spending money on.

Are we counting hours spent in the hammock mentally, or just physically?

This summer I've been averaging nearly 5 nights a week in a hammock, with only very limited opportunities during the day. When camping I spend as much time lounging in the hammock as the wife and kids will allow.
