    Looking for a new camping hammock

    I've got a blackbird XLC, ridgerunner, Quarter Dome, and some generic 11 foot gathered ends. I'm looking for something new. Any suggestions. I'd like to try a camelion, but you can't get them yet. What are some top end hammocks that are super comfortable? I'm just looking to try something new and different.

    I recently got the Dream Hammock Raven, and it is top notch. Extremely comfortable, and very modular without add-ons. Price is right too.

    A 12x6 is super comfortable. I needed a larger bugnet a foot longer and a foot bigger around. Also my tarp is 13x12. Some extra bulk and weight in pack. It ain't for everybody--it's for my comfort.

    If you want to try the chameleon then look at the dream hammock sparrow
    There's magic in the woods,
    if you know where to look for it.

    Get a wonderful Simply Light Designs Trail Lair hammock with a retractable net in your choice of fabrics and options. Available in double or single layer, a great hammock with reversible lay and amazing attention to detail. They even have NanoSeeUm mesh now. Jared will set you up right, and he usually has your hammock to you in 100 hours or less... Yes, that's HOURS, not days...

    (You should still get a Chameleon eventually; the modularity is awesome.)

    How tall and heavy are you? Consider a 90 degree while they're still cheap

    I'm a big Amok booster, and when you're rocking one of those, everyone comes to have a look (if that's your thing)

    Dream Hammock!! A Raven can go either way with no adjustment, a Sparrow is top of the line, and plenty of options above and below those models! The 1.6 Hyoer D is super comfy and soft to the touch, and the 1.7 Robic is still soft feeling, yet more durable! Both are really nice fabrics! They offer a 2.2 Hez that is super tough. Truly custom hammocks made by fine folks!! (I know there are other good vendors that have great products, but I LOVE my Dream Hammocks)!

    Where did you find that hammock? Did you make it?
