It's hard to beat the sleep one gets in a hammock! As far as your next rig goes, there are many good ones to choose from. Personally, I like my Clark NX-270 but they aren't made anymore so you would have to get a used one. It is a great starter rig and I liked it because of the poles that keep the bug net up. I've been looking at a Dutchwre chameleon lately and that one looks awesome. I think that Dream Hammocks are the most configurable and customizable but Dutch is also pretty configurable as well. There is also Warbonnet that makes some nice ones as well as Hennessey. There are a bunch of others that I am sure someone will mention them. Welcome to the forums, a wealth of information here. If you haven't already you should check out Shugemery on youtube, his videos cover a ton of stuff that is good to know.

Greetings from Minnesota! Hammock camping in the redwoods sounds like an absolute dream. Been through the Avenue of the Giants once and had the time of my life there.
