Im usually a tent user, but been wanting to give hammocking a go for a while now.
All seems a nice small pack size and light too, at 920g for the tarp/net/hammock and slings etc.
Starting to look at what i would need to buy, and think im sorted. But i just have a few questions before hand. (And perhaps after i get tangled up also )
DD Superlight Hammock http://www.ddhammocks.com/product/dd_superlight_hammock
DD Superlight 3mx2.9m tarp
DD Superlight Mosquito Net for the midges
So questions about each.
Can i use a thermarest inflatable mat inside the hammock or is the underquilt required?
I already have a 2.8mx1.5m tarp, but im guessing this would be too small to use with a hammock?
Could the midge net be rigged up below a tarp on the ground also? Im thinking ill probably carry a bivy bag incase theres no hanging spots around, and this would make it more bearable having protection from the midges.
