I live in North Texas and in the summer months between June to September I typically refrain from hammock camping due to extreme high heat and humidity. As a result I get cabin fever and a sense of melancholy during these months from not being able to do my local road trips within a 2 hour drive.
Most of the chatter on this forum is related to staying warm in winter but I find very little dialogue regarding tips/techniques to enduring extreme heat and humidity for those that dare to venture out during the summer months in my region (Texas,Oklahoma,Arkansas). I'm referring to days in the upper 90s to low 100s where the lowest evening temperature is with upper 70s to low 80s accompanied by high humidity.
I'm contemplating the idea of trying out some overnight trips that start late in the day and finish early morning and hammocking camping with only my clothing and no insulation above or below me. I would appreciate any tips or brainstorming for those who do brave the extreme temps.
