[at-l] HH Explorer Ultralite at Killer Deals dot com



http://www.northernmountain.com/NMSMain.asp?Option=Detail&ID=Explorer+Ultra+LIght&Dept=TN&Cat=TN5&SubCat=TN50&Detail=Yes

Description:
2 lb. 4 oz./250 lb.
At 9 feet long, the Explorer Ultralite A-sym was designed for anyone under 250 lbs. or more than 6 feet tall. It also has the same great proportions and protection as the smaller Ultralite Backpacker A-sym.

The Explorer is the missing link between the 9 ft. Expedition/Backpacker models and the hugh 11 ft. long Safari models. These two new models provide a new dimension in comfort without the weight penalty of the bigger Safari. These are the hammmocks for those who are over 6? tall or more than 250 lbs. There is still space to bring a lightweight pack inside.

The Ultralite A-sym hammock has a large silicone nylon fly and 1600 lb. test ropes and is just as impervious to mosquitoes as the UltraLite Backpacker. It is also more soft and stretchy than the Explorer Deluxe.

Rainfly coverage is excellent and the additional space can also be used to store a lightweight pack at the head end of the hammock. The new A-sym shape provides more space and comfort when resting on the diagonal.

"Coyote brown" hammock and fly
Features:

Latest tip! All hammocks ridge lines are installed with a loop on each inside hammock end to which a small caribinier can be hooked to hold daypacks, water bottles, and other small items which are too heavy to hang over the ridge line. It's dark up in the corners and you have to look but they're there, so - check it out!
Patented "Easy Enter, Easy Exit" Through The Bottom
Walk in to the middle of the hammock, turn around and sit down. Lay back and lift your feet inside
Patent-pending Asymmetrical Shape
Lying on the diagonal is the secret for maximum comfort in a hammock. We have designed the first hammock with a diagonal axis. We call it the "A-sym". We have moved the right side anchor point of the hammock down by your knee and the left side anchor point up by your shoulder. This makes the hammock feel longer with a wider 'sweet spot' of comfort. Then we did the same for the rainfly and added 30 percent more fabric for excellent coverage(not a feature of Cocoon, Expedition 2.5, Scout or Cub).
Patented "Snap Tight" Zipperless Closure
Your weight tensions the entrance which automatically snaps closed behind you.
Patent Pending "Perfect Set" Comfort Curve
Integral ridgeline maintains the same comfortable shape to keep your back straight and level when resting on the diagonal.
Patented "Never-Tip" Center Balance Design
Eliminates instability by entering from the centre instead of flipping over the side. This is the first hammock that does not cause you to lose your balance while entering the hammock.
Bug-proof
Large No-See-Um netting provides excellent insect protection and ventilation.
Windproof
The No-See-Um mesh will deflect wind to provide a calm space inside.
Waterproof
The rain-fly is polyurethane coated polyester ripstop or silicone impregnated nylon and may be tilted to any angle, rolled up above, removed or used separately
All hammocks have these additional features except the Adventure Racer and the Scout:

Full Velcro Seal
Your body weight keeps entrance sealed when you are inside but Velcro seal keeps bugs out while you are away. The Velcro seal also prevents unintentional opening when sleeping.
Triangular Mesh Gear Pocket
This nifty gear pocket slides on the ridgeline and stores out of site behind your head.
Nylon webbing straps
These are attached to the end of the suspending ropes to protect the tender bark of trees and provide greater span for the ropes. We call them "tree huggers."
