"The hammock should be joyful." That was my favorite thing you said. I was introduced to hammock camping by my cousin who bought a kit (Kammok Mantis) where the hammock, suspension, tarp, and bug net all came in one little bag. It was pretty much foolproof and only needed insulation. I bought the same thing he had and thoroughly enjoyed it. Now that I know what I'm doing, I've changed to a more modular set up where each component came on its own and I can customize my components. I'm giving my Mantis system to my son to use in Scouts, and now I'm getting ready to teach a class on hammock camping to his troop. I love it!

I was fortunate enough to have all the wonderful advice and experience of people like Shug and Backpacking With Buckley to make my hammock purchase. I purchased a Superior Gear Hammock and tarp, the first hang I had with it was in the backyard. And I comfortably slept in the winter temperature of 21º F with my top quilt and warm clothing. I cannot wait to actually hike and camp with it on the Superior Hiking Trail this June 2023. Great motivational advice here in this video, and I encourage every camper/hiker to take a swing at hammock camping.

I have a hammock at work That I string up at lunch between a couple of trees. Sometimes I'll sit there and eat a sandwich. Other times I'll rack out and sleep for 40 minutes... I only bring it up because I've been doing it for a couple of months and yesterday, I found THE PERFECT HANG! It was the most comfortable I'd ever been in that particular hammock in that location. It's never been UNcomfortable, but it's never been THAT comfortable before! It takes some time and tweaks and learning your system. But it's so worth it!

I would never have thought about hammock camping if it were not for you and the wonderful videos you post, very interesting. I enjoy the way you teach, you are always thorough and sometimes funny to watch. When I’m not in the woods I like watching people that are and living through them and seeing where they go. I love in East Tennessee, so we have several lakes and a lot of trails to explore as you probably already know. Thank you so much for the inspiration and the laughs!

I have been hanging for a little over six years now. From the moment I tried it, I was hooked. For me, it is the comfort. I know of no other sleep system that affords the comfort of a gathered end hammock. The old real water beds of the 70's have similar support, but I don't remember them being as comfortable...and you can't put one in your backpack or saddlebag. I sleep in a hammock every night. I have learned much from Shug and other online hammock guru's.....Still learning. Thanks for sharing.

Shug, you are the reasonI have been successful in my hammock! When I am out in the woods and having a struggle I always stop and mentally review your video teaching. I’m getting older and can’t do ground sleeping anymore and watching your videos gave me the courage to go to hammock. Hubby has now joined me after being a hard core tenter. This video is awesome. I have friends who have recently purchased hammocks and this will now be my go-to share link because of all the links to your other videos. It’s training all in one! I also have to take the opportunity to share that I once dreamed of attending clown college in Florida and becoming a clown. I cried when I heard about it’s closure.

You are so right about the learning curve. Heading out this weekend for a canoe trip and will be hangin a couple of nights. An inexperienced individual is coming along and wondered aloud if they should go and get a hammock to use instead of their tent. I quickly told him that if he wants a hammock, I will be happy to help him but there is a lot more to it than going out and buying a hammock and stringing it up between a couple of trees.

I'm a car camper, yet, LOVE me a good hammock sleep !!! My latest hang is from McLean Metal Works, here in the Seattle area. I have two options: hang from a mount that goes into my 2" receiver hitch; strap a stand to a tire and slide that same mount into the 2" receiver tube on the stand, and hang off the side of my rig. When it's raining a LOT, I have a 10x20 tarp which attaches to my overhead vehicle rack and use poles and guy lines. Now I have a dry place to sleep, to sit and read, to cook/eat, and basically, only my big tarp needs drying. An under quilt, top quilt, pillow... and, if needed, a poncho liner for added warmth. My hammock is an ENO double nest, so my sidearm goes in the pocket and I fold half the hammock over top of me for added heat retention/convection protection. I'm getting 10-11 hrs. of snooze per night EASILY with this set-up (Ok, one pee-run). Next outing, I'm going to use this rig mounted to my front tire and hang a tarp with doors for that, and my rear tire will have my tailgating table mounted to it and my main tarp giving protection for the table/chair/cooking area. I also keep a Teton single tent/cot rig in stand-by, but, really prefer sleeping in the hammock. I'm also making/using guy lines which are getting a little extra love by using heat-shrink tubing to dress the ends and knotless hardware. Due to the winds, my BIG tarp remains secure with the 12" spike tent pegs I snagged from Amazon. For smaller riggings, the 6" aluminum or titanium tent pegs get the nod. I'm also making toggle/shock chord pieces for guy-out corners to help preserve the grommets. This camping thing is it's own addiction/obsession. LOL

It was a big risk as we were tent campers and nerver in a hammock before. After the first night we decided we never wanted to go back to the ground again. I spent the best part of 2 years on and off learning about hammock camping and the gear, and i took the 'buy once cry once' approach and it payed off. There's something special about setting up camp in the woods so a big thank you for all the information that I've absorbed from your videos. Every trip is a learning experience.

Love hammock camping. Hammock well hung well it is a "purdy" thing. One additional issue. You might find the perfect spot, trees spaced just right, accessible trunks, great view very very exciting. Got all set up, sat down to cook and i heard someone running up the trail very fast, it was dusk hard to see but man was this guy moving, suddenly a thunderous crash as a deer, buck went right through the entire setup hammock, bug net, quilts and tarp! Bug net unusable hammock scratched and torn a little, tarp removed from one tree. Found the bottom quilt the next morning, apparently the deer didnt require the extra warmth. Hammock camping is very exciting you just never know what youre going to get. Oh and no it was not strung across the trail.. am thinking of getting some of those LED lights for the edges.

Great stuff Shug! What I tell people is that they have a learning curve for everything (just like you said), even tent camping. What most don't realize is that the tent camping learning curve was done (usually) at a young age, over a good span of time and on multiple outings (just like you recommend for hammocking); but they were so young the just don't realize it. Hammocks are little more fiddly but that's a benefit; you can create your own specific system; a tent is a tent, but most hammock systems are unique to the user.

Used money I was saving for a welder to buy a decent sewing machine. Lol and material for hammock and tarp. My custom made hammock is much more comfortable than the wallmart for sure. Using a field and stream foam pad . Next part of the project is to make underquilt and top quilt it can get realy humid here so synthetic I think is the way to go . And a underquilt protector. I am addicted to making things my learning curve has become figure eights. Lol

Rewatched this because of your reply to a thread on hammock forums. Always good information. Thankfully for my wallet, I'm one of those you talk about at the 6 min mark that have had good experiences using cheap/inexpensive items. Slowly, I'm upgrading items mostly so I can get items that pack better while hiking. Ultralight is not a goal. Good experiences are as I've been known to hike with a 10" cast iron griddle because of what I wanted to eat. (Even then, when I solo hike I've found smaller & 'lighter' cast iron options)

OMG! That rapid-fire burst of questions was less than a minute! The joys of ADHD: you're giving life lessons and I'm having difficulty dragging my eyes away from the squirrels in the background. Between foul weather, COVID-19 lockdown, work and Real Life being a total _sod_ from time to time, I've had precisely _one_ opportunity to actually spend a night sleeping in my hammock - which was already enough to get me completely reworking and rethinking my setup. I've bought different gear, swapped out items that came with the hammock for lighter items, bought various things for the suspension and a hammock sleeve to make deploying and stowing the hammock easier, learned how to make my own continuous loops from Amsteel... and I still haven't got everything dialled in yet. Once I get a proper tarp, I'm sure that I'm going to have more rethinking, reworking and tweaking and when I get to try it overnight again, I'll have even more things to change. I love the fact that hammock camping is modular. For a start, you can pick the components that work for you. The hammock, suspension, tarp, accessories etc don't all have to be from the same company so if you like _their_ hammock but prefer someone else's tarp because it has better tie-off points or whatever, you can do that. For another thing, you can buy the bits piecemeal as you can afford them and you can often make do with something else in the meantime. First night I took the hammock out - with a cheap polytarp and the car parked literally within 10 metres of the trees I chose to hang between at the camping ground - I thoroughly enjoyed being able to sit back in my hammock like it was a sofa, look out from under the "porch" of my tarp, make my coffee while sitting comfortably... and all the surprised reactions from the tent campers nearby who had never considered hammock camping before. I learned things, gained new insights and worked out what worked well and what didn't.

There is a learning curve. I recently got a Sparrow Dream Hammock. Very good one by the way. Then I learned I needed straps for susppension. Then there are knots or hardware for knots, not to mention what you will use for cordage. Then I picked up a winter tarp, because I want to hammock in all 4 seasons. Now I needed stakes and tiedowns and something to hold the doors closed plus snakeskins. I use hiking poles to spread the tarp out to give me more room. I wanted an underquilt, but they all have 8 to 9 week delays, because of Corvid. So I've been trying an old Thermorest insulated matt and a diy Costco quilt. I start out in the hammock and then my upper part of my body gets a little cold in the wee mornings. I like to be warm not hot and not cold. Some hang a wool blanket over the top and wear layered clothing to help keep the heat in. Then there is the lay. I'm still trying to figure that out. Everytime I try, I end up in bananna mode after a while. I have been trying to test it out in the backyard, even in the rain. I use earplugs for all the noise. I've not had, all successful full nights. I've learned I needed more storage inside and picked up a gear sling. I now have to learn how to seam seal for the tarp pullouts. I'm hoping to hike for a good week and I plan on using my hammock setup. I worry about getting cold at night, but I have a lot of good ideas now, thanks to you and KZbin. Would you recommend the North Country Trail in Wisconsin or the Lake Superior Trail in late October early November? I live in the Milwaukee, WI area.

I used this setup for a couple of years and just recently upgraded to a Warbonnet silpoly superfly tarp with Dutch Fleaz and Stingerz, and a Warbonnet BB XLC with Dutch cinch buckles and spider/poly straps. The difference in quality is absolutely amazing! Next on the list is to get an underquilt.

I love your videos Shug. You are just the right amount of crazy for me and that is a compliment. The world has too many serious boring people in it, that listening to Shug is nice change. I have watched a lot of your videos and you have me 90% convinced a should get myself a tarp and hammock and give it a go, but I want to give you some background first. I am not a hiker like you are but love camping and have done it all my life in Canada. So why am I watching videos from a guy who is a hiker you may be wondering. I ride and camp off of my adventure motorcycle and travel up north off the beaten path and camp. Since a motorcycle has limited space to carry things the type of gear hikers use, suits motorcycle adventurers more than those who just car camp. It may seem like a luxury to you , but I have around 75L of space to work with. I have always used a 2 man dome tent simply because it's all I know. You are changing that. What I like about a tent is it has some privacy when changing if I am in a more open public camping spot, it has enough space to bring some of my gear inside like my helmet and riding gear and can keep them dry and bug free. Now you have me convinced about a tarp and a hammock. If you were a salesman for work, I think you nailed salesman of the year, every year. Here are my concerns and maybe you can answer this here or in an ASK SHUG video one day. Have you ever ran into a situation that there is no where to hang a tarp and a hammock and what the heck do. you do? Where do you store your gear so critters aren't all in it (besides food in a bear bag)? If I take my car and my dog who weighs around 55 lbs (why lbs is an abbreviation for pounds is beyond me and metric is so much easier) is it possible to put a dog and yourself up in a hammock (I'm only 5'8") and they are ok with that. He sleeps in the tent fine? Finally, I think I may stick with my current tent which I was going to upgrade this year and spend the $ on a starter hammock and tarp setup and like everyone else I go on Amazon and hope there are enough reviews to get a feeling if it'll be ok. Here is where I am learning for a starters kit. I already have things like good down bags, Klymit pads and things like that so what do you think ? www.amazon.ca/dp/B01KGOVEI6/?coliid=I202X9BHE5VN7S&colid=23TH29YYP2CRR&psc=1&ref_=lv_ov_lig_dp_it Any help would be appreciated and keep up these excellent videos you make.

I camped with a great group of people in Illinois and Wisconsin that I learned so much from. After moving back to Texas I have a group of two and we are camping more and more now that is getting cooler. I have struggled over the last couple of nights out with my comfort in the hammock. Thanks for sharing refresher videos and the past videos that I went back and watched. I found opportunities to change/adjust my DIY gathered end set up for a way better night sleep.

Okay so now I've had a chance to finish the video. I bounce back and forth between tree dwelling and ground dwelling. But more often than not when I'm on the ground, I still carry a lightweight hammock. Sometimes it's my chair in camp, sometimes it's my couch, or my lounge if you will, I think Shug is spot on. If nothing else it's one more thing to experiment with. I often say that you need to take the advice that your parents gave you and throw it out the door when you're hiking. Play with your food, play with your tents, play with your hammock, play with your gear... That's half the fun for me! Just getting out there exploring, experimenting and experiencing all that nature and the hobby have to offer.

Good video for anyone to see. I, like yourself, enjoy the process of learning how to do something. You are always learning, even when you think you have a complete understanding of something. Case in point - I just got back from 5 day trip. I have been using a hammock for over 15 years and was lucky enough to never run into too many issues. However on this past trip - two out of 4 nights - perfect distance between trees, clear ground underneath - could not have been better setup. But both times after a few hours of sleep I woke up with a cold spot on the middle of my back (aka migrating CBS). All I can say is it reminded me of a tooth ache and there was no way I was going to fall back to sleep. This has never been a problem for me personally (once again because I am probably lucky), but there is a first time for everything. It took me a few times getting up and fiddling with the underquilt suspension to get rid of it. Although I hated gettting up, there was some satisfaction that I was able to figure out what was wrong. Always something to learn.

I've just put a system together for concept, hammock inside an old down bag as a pod, replaced the gather strap with 3mm paracord doubled and knotted, split the footbox seam fullwidth on the bag and fed hammock loop through. Took a compression sack and used a soldering iron to melt a tiny hole for the para to poke through and then melted them together to seal. So my paracord loop attaches to my treestrap, unpacking the rest leaves me with the compression sack acting as a rain gaiter and draftseal, cinched at the top end over the podbag. Might do the same at the head end when I do it with my 'proper' bag, this was just a testbuild 👍 Even if the head end bag is just there and not pulled down at all it'll be a rainbreak, I think I'm going to go Timmy twobags on it.
