>>1652850How much did your mother drink so you came out this retarded?
> in a hammock for 14 hours of darkness.If you can use hammock at winter you have access to trees and wood, you build a fire, you sit in your hammock, you read, kindle the fire, look at it for hours contemplating life, go to sleep way past midnight.
Wake up 9 hours later, rest your head on the edge of the hammock and look at yesterdays camp. You didn't have to do shit, you didn't need to get out of your sleeping bag, didn't need to stretch or unzip the two freezed up zippers yet you are looking at yesterdays blazing fire that's now all but a pile of ash. You listen to the morning birds singing and wonder if you will find an ember in there for later.
If you feel not rested you just say fuck it, roll on the other side and resume the ritual an hour later.
How Is this worse than your implied 14hrs in a tent?
>>1652861Cold can and will kill you if you make big mistakes. Not being corectly protectef from wind is a deadly mistake.
Under quilt is necessary all year round, pads in hammock are bullshit meme we all tried when we wanted to justify not dropping another hundred bucks for a new toy. You won't feel wind gusts, even strong ones, you will just be loosing much more heat than in a tent. I'd rate tent as being 5-8c warmer than the same sleeping bag/clothes in hammock with under quilt.
>>1652426> If its wet and have trees - hammock> If its cold and you haven't been in comparable temps - tentOther than that its personal preference and i recommend trying both.
