Folks,
I tried a top cover recently - I had a bit of a claustrophobia attack in there! . I mean, it was tight and the air was certainly being captured. Worked great to isolate from the wind, I guess you get used to it.
Last week I slept on the beach right next to the shore with some pretty good offshore winds. In that situation I lowered the tarp sides and closed the doors and I was warm and toasty in there shielded from the wind.
I would imagine a top cover is intended for the same purpose. I was wondering if folks use both together or one over the other and perhaps why. It seems like the tarp would provide much better protection since it can also shield the UQ and hammock wall itself. Perhaps the cover is for that in-between area where I don’t want to storm mode the tarp and the conditions are much milder?
They also look cool - maybe that’s it!
Thanks,
-Tom
