    HeyHey from Big Island - Hawaii

    Long-time backpacker... first-time hammocker. I have had my Hennessy hammock for just over several months now and enjoy it completely. I find myself "geeking out" on some of the littlest ideas...for quite some time.
    I've modified my suspension to rap rings and biners and... I'm already eyeing the CubenFiber Hex fly as an upgrade. .

    Sleeping on the ground in the wilderness seems like such taboo at this point.

    Much aloha from the island of Hawaii. Hope to talk with you all soon.

    Welcome from Denver, Colorado. You're not alone on geeking out on suspension and other pieces. That's half the fun!

    Welcome from NJ. I'm not jealous at all because while you hang in a nice warm 70 degrees i can have the pleasure of 29 degrees and raining..... HAH
