      Be sure to get at least 11’ long and 56” or so wide hammock, and try using a down underquilt and top quilt or opened up sleeping bag, the length of the hammock is crucial in order to get a great and comfy horizontal lay diagonally across the diagonal of the hammock. If using a ridge line, 83% length of the overall length hammock should give a very good starting point in order to having enough sag in the hammock to permit a comfortable lay across the diagonal. Unfortunately there are lots of hammocks out there which are too short to be comfortable, which is of course ultimately a source of disappointment to their users. Good kit set up well will give you one of the best ever sleeps outdoors (or indoors!) imaginable🖐🏻🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

      Alright mate, cheers. Hammocks are definitely a niche I think, but if you can find one that suits you and is quick and simple to put up, I reckon they would be okay for you. Main benefit being getting you up and off the ground which opens up spots which would otherwise be unsuitable for camping. That area is great for birdlife - heard two cuckoo's now and can't beat the sound of the curlew rolling across the moors. ATB pal .

I looked at the haven and the amok so I could lie flat but they're very expensive and the weight of a decent 4 season tent so I don't see the point

    • @freeforester1717
      @freeforester1717 Рік тому

      Try an 11 foot long hammock, doesn’t need to be exoensive - mine (Tukeke) cost a little over £23, best money I ever saved and put the saved money toward a good quality down underquilt. The flat lay you can have across a longer hammock is a revelation. A structural ridge line from end to end of the hammock set at around 83% of the hammock length will help dial in the right amount of sag in the hammock. Best most comfortable sleep system going! Don’t skimp on the down UQ, an old sleeping bag can do for on top of you, but there is nothing like being cocooned in down quilts. Enjoy!
