I just received my Darien UL Monday on my return from Texas. I have only had time to hang it in the yard for about an hour. That was long enough to know I love it. Free Range you hit every wonderful point of this hammock. I found the sweet spot right off, and I didn't want to get out, but I had work to do. Darn!!!
I love the Dutch gear, and it is so easy to set up and jump in. I may have a zipper added to the other side, I like the UL, but I prefer the convenience of a zipper on both sides, to zip the net all the way off. (winter-no bugs)
I really do love this hammock, and it will be my backpacking hammock for sure. PapaSmurf went above and beyond on this little treasure.
Thanks PapaSmurf!!!!
