    I have grey tarp and camo and grey tq and uq. But my hammock is blaze orange. My reason is for signaling in the event of a emergency.

    Generally black and green colours. I like to blend in with the natural surrounds. Makes it harder to find if you get a bit lost though!

    Thats exactly why I chose orange for my rain jacket. So I can be spotted. If it was any other piece of gear uh...no. Good idea TN.

    I like to be concealed out in the bush, so I purchased the digital camo Superfly. When pitched tight and low, it disappears in the Canadian boreal forests.
    As for my hammock, I am rocking a multicam Streamliner. My first hammock was a HH Exped, so there were no color options, but I am very happy with the look of the Streamliner.
    My UQ is a black and green MW4, and I use an olive brown UQP from 2QZQ. I guess you could say I have a blend of camo and earthtones. As I said, I like to blend in with my surroundings, so flashy and bright are out of the question for me. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion though, and I would never begrudge someone for having a florescent, glow in the dark setup. Hell, I crack glow sticks and hang them from my ridgeline and suspension at night.

    As for being spotted, my pack cover is bright orange.

    Do you have pictures of your multicam Superfly. I would love one for hanging in the plains or desert.

    My setup is all OD green(tarp and hammock) and Dessert tan(quilts and gear hammock). I like to be blend in some when going out in the woods.
    First there was the TTTM Double that I chose in green and tan, then got tan UQ and TQ. Last but not least got some OD green stuff from Warbonnet.

    I personally like bright/bold colors for all of my hiking/camping gear, though when all the hammock stuff is under a green or grey tarp, it doesn't much matter for others who might see. Interestingly, I have a "limeade" profly. Alone it is very bright and noticeable, but when hung in a lush forest, the bright green blends in surprisingly well. I suppose that is the best of both worlds for me.

    I like natural colors but usually not camo because it looks too military. Don't get me wrong, almost all of my family is military or LEO and I've worked with and respect the military but, unless its surplus, I'll choose solid natural colors. I am trying some bright colors for tarp lines and such and will probably pait some spots on my dutch wear but I'm mostly greens and browns.

    My warbonnet and my two tarps are earth tones, all tones of grey actually, because that is whats out there, but my ENO is orange/light grey and my underquilt is a bright blue. I wouldn't mind a setup of all bright colors. I often get lost trying to find my way back to my campsite :P
