Hey guys,
I just recently stepped in the hammock world. I've actually never even hung outside, just in my basement. However, I enjoy it a lot and can't wait to get out (should be in a few weeks).
As I have been putting my system together I started giving some other ideas some thought. I grew up loving the woods, and still love them to this day. However, my dreams are filled with journeys above tree line and in vast open plains (Scottish Highlands etc.).
I currently live in Northwest Indiana. The armpit of the US in terms of outdoor activities! I fully intend to move in the next few years once I graduate. I fully intend to chase these dreams and with any luck, I hope to land somewhere within the Rockies.
So, is there a hybrid system out there? Does anyone here share time on the ground and in the trees? Does anyone manage the same dreams I have with a hammock? Any tips, hints, ideas, of systems with the most overlap as to reduce the amount of gear needed?
This is somewhat of an incomplete thought. It's still bouncing around in my head, so feel free to think out loud. That's pretty much what this is.
Thanks for your time.
