>>2030978They're kind of shit for everything but specific usage.
Pros:
>Gets you up and away from bugs in tropical areas. Also lets you stay dry. This is the primary usage for them.>Lets you set up camp in hilly, rocky areas like your picrel.>Fairly light and cheap.Cons:
>No ground insulation = c-o-l-d. Air flowing freely over and around you, transporting heat away from your body = C-O-L-D.>Nowhere to store your gear.>Nowhere to sit and chill, away from the elements. >Exposed to bears, witches, demons and trolls. >Unless in an area where prime, flat camping ground is exceedingly rare; it's more of a hassle to find the right trees. It's basically a pretender kit for Wallmart ninjas. If condensation, heat and bugs aren't a problem then a tent will be the superior choice. Buying a hammock with a "winter kit" is pure brain damage.
