So, when you guys are out hammocking by yourself in the wilderness . . . . do you ever have moments where a noise or something startles you?
For example, camping in a state campground once, I was startled awake by something trying to get into a metal trashcan.
Afterwards, I was hyper-alert for other noises. As I was drifting off again, I heard something walking in the leaves near my site. I got up out of the hammock and went to investigate. I never did see anything (or even hear it run away for that matter). I think I was more wary because of the fact that I was in an established campground, easily accessible from the Natchez Trace Pkwy. I believe I would have preferred to be in the middle of nowhere.
How do you guys deal with moments like that? Just lay in the hammock without a care? Or get spooked and start imagining zombies?
