    Rain Rain Go Away???

    I have plans to go to Harold Parker for a family long weekend. But the rain is coming, so I might be going Friday by myself. Or wait until early Saturday am.

    What would you do (keeping in mind I just got my new XLC WBBB and haven't hung in it yet)???

    You will essentially be car camping, therefore bailing won't be a issue, so I say, "It's tarp testing time!"

    DO IT!!! I love hanging in the rain!!! In the past when using a tent it was always a dreaded event but since using hammocks the rain is a great excuse for some extend R&R in the hammock. Take a book, listen to some music, take a cat nap, or take several cat naps, your tarp will surely be up to the task...
    Happy Hangin'

    A rainy day testing out new gear is better than a great day sitting at home waiting for rain to stop!

    I spent a week last June camping alone. Had a great time, but I am kind of loner.
