I’m a 6’5” 280 pound side sleeping backpacker. My current ultralight setup is a bug bivy, one person dcf tarp (MLD Patrol solo), air pad, and down mummy bag. So I’m used to having very little privacy or dry space. After working hard to shave as much weight as possible off my pack weight, I’m ready to add some back in the name of comfort. I’m tired of getting mediocre sleep and I’m not getting any younger. Things hurt that didn’t used to, and having a pad go flat in the middle of the night makes it worse. I’ve done a bunch of reading, and video watching, and looked at various products, and I think I’ve got it pretty well narrowed down as far as what I think will work well for me. However, I’d still GREATLY appreciate any insight or advice this wonderful community could offer.
Here’s what I’m thinking of getting-
Hammock- single layer dutchware chameleon wide hexon 1.6 W/ symmetrical bug net and beetle buckle suspension
Under quilt- UGQ Zeppelin 40° 83” length
Tarp- Hammock gear DCF standard tarp with doors
Primary concern is whether a single layer of hexon 1.6 is sufficient for a big heavy guy like me. I know it says it has a 350 pound weight limit, but a single layer of fabric just seems suspicious.
