You will be happy with either. I just figured that by the time you add a weathershield to the Tropical there would only be $20 difference. The pockets on the NA are placed in the torso area and would have some value in the 60 to 70 degree range because they would create a dead air space and stop some wind. In the 45 to 60 degree range you can use a pad in combo with the pockets for low cost insulation. If you camp mostly in mid summer the tropical would have some good points but if you are like me I prefer the spring and fall for camping and the NA would be better in these two seasons.One smiple question, Why do you perfered, that the North American would be much better choice, when you can order the Weathshield and the XL Rain Fly options for the Tropical.
They both seem to more equal in comparison. Is it because the Weather Temperature range, Or I'm sorta missing something?
I guess I would need to call clark's jungle hammock in the morning...
