I'm an ultralight backpacker currently sleeping in a tarptent on the ground. I'm thinking of trying out the hammock thing. I've got a ENO DN that I can mod with new suspension, MYOG bugnet, probably MYOG tarp as well. But will I be happy? I'd hate to spend another $100 on parts when I could just sell the DN and put the money towards a BIAS or Dream Hammock setup. I'm 5'8" and 165 lbs so I can fit in most anything, and I'm used to dealing with silnylon/nanoseeum/sewing my own/etc. Most threads seem to say go with WBBB, but right now my tent, pad, quilt, everything is only 4.25 lbs. I'd hate add a couple pounds of weight to my sleep system.
