Received Backpacker magazine today - the yearly gear guide. One of the reader picks at the very beginning is Grand Trunk hammock compatible sleeping bags. Hammocks aren't fully mainstream yet but they're growing in popularity every day.
Each mention by sites like the 3 part series on Andrew Skurka's site recently, mentions in Backpackinglight.com's weekly emails and references in Backpacker will continue to grow the ranks!
Maybe it's just me but it definitely seems like hammocks are getting an increasing amount of attention.
As long as new hangers do so responsibly (ie using tree straps, etc), all the new hangers is great!
