Thanks Mike, I appreciate the kind words. It's a really great setup. I wasn't sure how big it was really going to be but the base of this is bigger than I thought. It easily fit two of with gear and cots and stove. The stove is super nice but only overshadowed by being able to stand up when you...

The hammocks are very comfy for sure. I noticed that when I was napping in my mine, even in 70 degree weather, a light breeze made me uncomfortably chilly. So when considering weight, consider the weight of the underquilt and pad; they're a must. Other than that, it's all about personal...
