Hey everyone. I made a video of my 2nd backpacking trip with the hammock setup. It was pretty hot out there. I used the HG Economy 20 degree top quilt and underquilt and it was a bit overboard since the temps never dipped below 50 degrees.
Enjoy!

Solo Overnight Hammock Backpacking Trip at the Ventana Wilderness Los Padres National Forest
8/7/202 - 8/8/2022
I took a quick trip to the Ventana Wilderness from the Arroyo Seco Campground Trailhead. This is the second trip with the backpacking hammock setup.
The goal for this trip was to take in the moment. Enjoy what comes on the trail. Look out for trees for nice hammock hanging options and to avoid widowmakers. This is the first time taking out the Hammock Gear Economy Incubator 20 degree underquilt. Overnight temperatures never dipped below 50 degrees so it was more than adequate.
I mapped out a route to go as far as Willow Springs Campground but found a nice pair of trees at Tassajara Creek Campground so set up camp there.
The next morning I stopped by the Horse Bridge for lunch and coffee and found another sweet hang spot.
It was hot in certain areas. Both the Pixel 4a and Insta360 Go overheated when trying to shoot time lapse. When I got back to the car, the outside temperature reading was 96 degF.
