    I'm reviewing insulation videos again. My setup is usually pretty consistent, but earlier this month I went out with an insufficient setup. Your setup looks like, Superior insulated hammock + underquilt +weather shield + sock+top quilt +cocoon. What are the temp ratings and what temps are you sleeping in? With the Blackbird and the 0* Wookie I've slept fine to around 20*. On the last trip I tried using the Wookie with the Dutchware Cameleon and had cold spots and poor sleep in the 30s. Thanks for the video.

      The hammock was the Superior 30F Elite with an XL, extra wide 10F Hammock Gear Incubator Underquilt situated below the Superior 30F. The Hammock Gear Underquilt Protector was around the setup, and the 30F Superior also had its own protector that happened to be snapped to it. There was a Dutchware Winter Sock I had on there too. The low was -9 F though it felt more like -4 F or so. I do nor think the extra pieces of nylon, like the protectors make much difference. The Hammock Sock: I thought the One Wind Sock (not pictured) worked well, but it had a little tear in its window. The Dutware one is easy to use, but I feel like it gets a bit more frosty inside, perhaps the tradeoff being more water resistance, but then again I thought I ordered the "breathable" version. Either way, I think that perhaps a regular mosquito net cuts the wind almost as good as the Sock, or I just flop a jacket over where my head is. I have yet to get those bigger hammocks, like in this video, really far out: they take up so much space. What tarp do you like to use?

      Dutch Hammock with Wookie: I do not own a Wookie but have been keeping an eye out, however, the Dutch Hammock I have, the Half-Zipped, which to my knowledge ran a similar dimension to the slightly older Duch Chameleons--that Dutch Half-Zipped is one of the least comfortable hammocks I have & does not work well with almost any bottom quilts or pads, perhaps a waste of Hammock money. If you think that Chameleon might be an older version, I think Dutch ran too narrow of a Hammock then, and it did not work well with the net. I think Warbonnet got the design down with its foot box. The Blackbird XLC is probably the most comfortable Hammock I have, I just do not have a Wookie, and I really do not like the Hassel of tying out the shelves (maybe someday opt for an Eldorado). Sorry any bad typos & spelling: the autocorrect on this phone is terrible. Freaking thing does not know what a foot.box is.

    Here's my concern with the gatewood cape, lanshan, lunar solo, and other ones the same shape. If you are setting up in a storm, how in God's name do you have space to dry off your wet ass and set up your inner and sleep system without getting everything wet in such a small vestibule? A the pyramid style allows for that but it's less compact. I wish i had a cape to try.

I pair mine with the Mozzy 360 bugtent or the Onewind Windsock as necessary. I may upgrade to Dutch or Superior sometime, but for now, its working great for me.

      Nice! The 26" frame I have can run rear 27.5 × 2 tires...no problemo. The front is a 27.5 fork, so I cannot say for a 26" fork, though the 27.5 wheels only seem mildly taller than the 26". The 27.5 wheels I have roll pretty nice, but I do see how, say at Wal-Mart or wherever bikepacking on the fly, that 26" is still the most common size.

      It's tight. I sent Nemo some remarks to open the mouth of the pump sack a little bigger so the pad rolled in half can fit easy. The First Lite did fit easy in its bag. The Nemo Bikepack Tent I tried would not fit back in its bag easy, but the Hornet did. One would think getting the bag right would be easy.

    @livinlarge1247 So I've taken mine down to 18 without an issue, but you do want to make sure the down is distributed along the baffle. You can just brush the down with your hand from one side to the other. Shug has a video where he shows this, which is where I picked up on the trick. edit: You can get it suuuper warm if you distribute the down asymetrically on your lay- head right feet left or feet left head right, but shouldn't need to do all that.
