Hey guys, is it comfortable for a side sleeper to camp in a hammock? I just cannot fall asleep while I’m on my back. Should I stick to my tent?

Whenever I’m just chilling in a hammock I felt that lying on my side took a lot of work and wasn’t very comfortable, but I’m guessing it depends on the hammock.

    it’s viable, with most hammocks. an important detail is to leave enough slack in the hammock that your body rests horizontally, diagonally within the hammock.

      Amazing picture. I’ve often struggled to describe it in words but didn’t have a good picture showing it
