Re: [at-l] Hennessy hammock?

I bought one Sunday at REI in Atlanta for $65 on their sale table. They are 
discussing this out the wahzoo on an Egroups list for backpacking gear 
testing, trying out a new model designed for colder weather. David Addleton 
uses a hammock in his hiking, and I really liked the idea of being free to 
select a campsite without regard for how level the ground it. The key idea 
is to perfect a way of attaching to trees without damaging bark or dropping 
on one's pride in the middle of the night.

While there are some hoop tents on sale for less at Wallyworld, $65 for a 
2.5 pound shelter seems like a real bargain. I'll have to find a way to get 
one of my daughters to claim to have purchased it for me and get it under 
the tree before Mrs. Bug finds the receipt!
