>>1772999Man, I used to be totally on board with hammocks > tents, but in all honesty it just comes down to location needs. Do I prefer a hammock? Abso-fuckin-lutely. Do I always get to hang? Hell no. I've come up with all sorts of hacks to get past trees too; BD camalots, Tensa4... It all extendeds your abilities, but honestly, I'm happy rocking either, so long as I'm out.
Waking up on a summit to watch the sunrise is just as awesome as sleeping comfortably in a hammock for 4 nights in a row.
