Hammock questions

[hammock monkey]

bush pod pro is a great hammock, very large and you can wrap one layer over yourself (hence the pod) if you dont have a tarp up and the weathers bad.

I sleep without a tarp in summer, as if i want to sleep out in the open then i put up with the rain and twigs etc that fall on you.

to be able to see the sky at night is fantastic


only thing is I'm not sure you can get them anymore, i thought they closed down a while ago - just googled them and it looks like they're not around anymore. I got mine 2nd hand, try ebay etc. Amazingly easy to set up, i use lightweight carabiners now, but i used knots for a few years.

That's good news Sandbag, i think i might wait then in buying a DD and tarp set up.


Thanks everyone for your input, much appreciated. All i need now is to know how to set it up properly with the correct knots etc. :You_Rock_
