Mooseman, one great hammock trick, is if you have calf ridge line making sleep no fun--is while on back in hammock, draw both knees toward stomach and dig in your feet as close to butt as can--and then straighten knees and hips, pushing all wrinkles away from middle of hammock toward the edge past your feet. I thought of this myself and talked with a veteran hammocker at Grayson--and he does the same move before I ever thought of it.
You can also pull on fabric above and to the side away from the middle to remove calf ridge on other side. Not a good explanation--a really cool trick.

Grappler, Thanks for the tips, I think it's just a matter of putting them all together and tweaking them a little. I may still need a little help when I arrive for the setup. Thanks again and can't wait to meet everyone down at yates place.....

Well, I'm out. House got sold this past Friday and I'll be moving to SC that weekend. Bummer!
Mooseman, I hope to see you at Yates. Since it can be cold before sunrise--you will need under insulation, either pad or underquilt or both.
