This weekend I took my SBPro out and went camping with my daughters (5 and 9). We had a great time - they slept in my old tent
It was chilly though - down in the mid 40's I'm guessing and I was cold!
I know there are several great UQ's on the market but I just don't have the money right now to drop a few hundred bucks on something I won't use that much. I've got a Wally World blue pad - and it works OK but I want to explore jury rigging some kind of UQ. Weight and size aren't an issue - my girls had more gear than Hillary did doing Everest!
I've got a few old el-cheapo sleeping bags - I'm wondering if I can't somehow rig one up as an UQ? Maybe using those tarp clips someone had posted about recently? Clip those to the sleeping bag and then rig up some kind of suspension system? How are UQ's usually hung? I'm thinking if I used some type of elastic cord similar to the stuff the SBPro bug net is suspended with it should 'self-adjust' a bit to my hammock...
