Hey there!
I'm volunteering my first season as a park ranger and telling people about hiking and camping all day gave me the bug to go backpacking again. I haven't been for over 6 years because I could never sleep on even the thickest, most expensive pads. I always wanted to try hanging, so I bought my kit (the last crucial part came in today) and will spend my first night in it tonight! I have plans for a 3 day backpacking trip next week, so I'm hoping to work out most of the kinks by then. I've lounged in the hammock a good amount so far, and I'm getting a bit of a calf ridge.
Here's my new gear: dutchware half-zipped hammock, xenon hex tarp, daisy chain suspension with mantis hardware, and a 20* full length incubator.
This forum has been super helpful already, so thanks for that!
