Give me some tips on hammock camping

[Gseith]

Had a traditional pad we tried in the hammock yesterday and it worked great just out in the yard. Any problem with using that instead of buying one specifically for hammocks.

Still have underquilt ordered. Will use it as needed for weather.

No issues at all. I used a 3/4 length pad and liked how it kinda helped form the hammock to be flat. If he has a quilt with that pad he will be fine.

Yea, my legs rarely get cold, but I will put a glassing pad under my feet sometimes. A wider pad is better so you're not fighting cold shoulders all night. Always check overhead before you setup for widowmakers!
