Quoted By:
I use a hammock with a built in bug net and a tarp. It is extremely light to carry and easy to set up.
If there are no trees I set the hammock up in ground mode and find some sticks to support the tarp..
In the summer I can get rid of the sleeping bag and use a small blanket because it gets very warm here.
In the winter I use a gore-tex bivy and a sleeping bag with a tarp and ditch the hammock.
