Went on an overnight trip to the Buffalo River in Arkansas. The weather was nice enough to just sleep outside

    Hammocks are just better IMO. Tarp + Hammock is my go to shelter in every season.

      Love my hammock. Trying to get the wife to like it, but her first experience was suboptimal. Gonna try again next summer.

            My hammock has a built in bug net 🤷‍♂️

            Here is my setup last weekend: Hammock by the river with dog in background

            Here’s another angle, with the rain fly extended: Closeup of hammock with rain fly. Orange chair on ground with items on it, backpack hanging from low tree branch

            I was quite comfortable to be honest. But tents are fine, I still own a tent, and depending on where I’m camping or how much I’m glamping, I’ll bring the tent, and maybe even toss in an air mattress. I’m flexible 😁

              Nah, you sold me at “built-in bug net” hahaha hammock is so much more comfy than sleeping on an air mattress or bedroll.
