Dave Canterbury of the pathfinder school, working with duluthpack of minnesota, and asking for feedback from bushcrafters who subscribe to his channel, came up with this Duluth Pathfinder Log Cot.
Inspired by a bedroll used by Horace Kephart in the early 1900's.
Can be used as a raised bed, a stretcher, or my favorite a hammock, with struts.

I've never gotten along with conventional hammocks. I dont like how they wrap around me but this looks comfy. Especially with the struts.
Im not spending $225 on one from duluth, but I reckon with a few minor alterations, you could make a comparable set up with this new nato canvas camp bed for a tenner.
Already have mosquito nets, and rigging.
