Minifly or Thunderfly?

[Shrewd]

That's one of my favorite setups! Drains rain really well and leaves you with a view.

Yep!

I first did it so I wouldn’t have to fuss with the bugnet pullouts on my Warbonnet but now it just seems like the only way to go!

If it starts raining I’ll often take the head end like out and tighten down the tarp but still leave the foot end like up for half porch mode. It makes it easier moving and and setting things up as well as late night pee breaks.

If it’s bad I’ll fully batten down the hatches

I can’t wait to try that set up! I usually just batten down the hatches when I sleep, half porch mode never occurred to me.

I ordered a bushwack minifly in the sale, couldn't resist the price. If only warbonnet made tarps in dyneema, a CF thunderfly/mountainfly would be amazing.

I think the Minifly has plenty of coverage in Porch mode.



I had it in the rain two weekends ago and it was perfect. I did not feel the need to lower the front at any time.

Coverage over my XLC was great.

I ordered the minifly. One of the things I like most about hammocking is being able to see around me and avoiding the the claustrophobic tent feeling. I'm sure I'll be fine in a storm and I love the simplicity of the set up and most of all no seam sealing.

That's one of the reasons I ordered one too. I don't like the greenhouse effect on the CF in the summer.

Yes.....Minifly is a right goodie. Love mine. Love it.

Thanks for all the great advice about which tarp to pick y'all! (&OP for starting it up) It definitely helped me decide, pulled the trigger on a warbonnet MF and SF as kit for my wife and I.
First post here on HF after reading absolute troves of info, pumped to get out there!

I made the switch for the Summa.

Looking GOOD! Man, I kinda wish I went mini instead of thunderfly. Still time to change since my order is pending for another item. Not sure
