r/Hammocks

I'm planning to purchase my first hammock camping setup.  I've done a fair amount of backpacking with a tent, and I've just never slept well.  I'm hoping that I'll be able to get more rest in a hammock, though I haven't actually tried it.  We have an Eno for lounging in the back yard, but it's not really meant for diagonal lay sleeping

  I want to purchase a hammock, suspension, tarp, and underquilt and keep it as light as my tent setup which comes up to around 4.6 pounds (Marmot Tungsten + Thermarest Prolite).  I'm fortunate to not be worried too much about cost, but of course I don't want to just throw away money.  My primary concerns are comfort, warmth, and weight

6oz HyperD, 1.7oz MTN, or 1.8oz Airwave?  Is there any benefit in going to double-layer for better wind protection, warmth, and firmer lay?  If it doesn't provide wind protection and warmth, should I just go to a heavier fabric for a firmer lay?

 You could use a single layer hammock, but if should squeeze is an issue you might want to step up to a heavier weight fabric such as 2.2 or 2.4.

I also prefer a hammock that is atleast 62 inches wide. Anything more narrow than that and I feel squeezed in. It can sometimes be tricky to find wide hammocks in heavier weight fabric, but Dream hammock does sell them. I think all of Dutch's wide hammocks are 1

I'm 6'1" and 270 at the moment. Headed to AT and I'm looking to get rid of my tent and head to a hammock. My choice at the moment is the warbonnet eldorado double. Possibly with the thunderfly. I'm also looking at the chinook system they have of a under layer to hold a quilt and over layer to replace bugnet. 

Does anyone have any ideas for big guy stuff. Or other hammock systems I should look at? I like the idea of getting a system from one place, it will all hopefully zip together.

Looking for ideas for big guy hammock...

.  I just upgraded and got a dream hammock sparrow that arrived to me a month ago. I got both the overcover and bug net, both which zip into the sides of the hammock (only one at a time, not both at same time), which I really like.

 I got both the overcover and bug net, both which zip into the sides of the hammock (only one at a time, not both at same time), which I really like.

I’ve been camping for the past few years in my reliable big Agnes tent. Last year a few times I went solo and thought it would be cool to just sit around in a hammock and read out in the woods quietly.

I figured I’d get a jumpstart on this season so I went to EMS Nashua NH and looked around at what they had in stock. A helpful sales person told me they stocked Eno hammocks.  I bought one and took it home to try out.

Further reading here tells me that I need tarp, a tarp line, an under quilt and straps to get really started properly.  

Eno doesn’t seems to have a the rest of these as a package for me to buy.  

Should I start piecing this stuff together on my own? 

How does a bug net attach to this hammock without any kind of zippers or attachment points?

Thanks for the continued guidance 👍

A full rain cover, a spacious vestibule, and a reinforced pole structure make this the best choice for couples who are committed to getting outside no matter the weather.

OutdoorGearLab

The REI Base Camp 6 is a great choice for those looking to dip their toes into colder, windier, and rainier adventures. With a sturdy 4-pole structure and thick, strong materials, this tent is ready to take on the harsh world of both teenagers and bad weather camping. And thanks to a 27-square-foot front vestibule, you'll have options to cook and store your gear safely out of the elements. You can always count on REI tents to have boatloads of pockets, great headroom, and a clean aesthetic style &mdash; the Base Camp boasts all of that and more. 
Unlike most REI tents, though, the Base Camp 6 sides and doors are not open mesh. This means no nice views while lying down, and you can expect to be fairly toasty on warm days if you're hanging out inside. There are, however, some half zip coverings on the doors to give you a little extra view. All in all, this is a great option for those needing a well-priced weather-ready shelter. Snag this tent for your next stay in the rainy Pacific Northwest or the thunderstorm-prone Rocky Mountains. 

Switchback Travel

Sitting near the top of REI's camping lineup for 2022 is their Base Camp 6, which takes cues from mountaineering designs for a sizable boost in weather-worthiness. The dome shape and overlapping five-pole system mean the walls aren’t as vertical as the Wawona's above, but it’s still very easy to move around inside, and the reward is far better resistance against strong gusts (it’s rated for 3+ season use, meaning the tent can hold its own). And the rest of the design is equally up to snuff with an excellent mix of quality materials and design features, including two roof vents, functional organization, and even reflective detailing to help you see the tent in the dark.

It’s worth noting that the Base Camp recently went up in price by a considerable $80 (from $469 to $549 for the 6P capacity), making it the second-priciest option in REI’s camping tent collection (right behind the $599 Wonderland 6 below). It’s far and away the most weather-ready option of the bunch, but it uses less mesh than both the Wonderland and Skyward below, which has a notable impact on ventilation. Additionally, despite a similarly sized floor area, the Base Camp feels noticeably less roomy due to the lack of vertical walls. In the end, we’d break it down as follows: The new Skyward (which replaces the popular Grand Hut) is the value leader and plenty of tent for most family campers, the Base Camp is best for those that plan to take their tent into relatively rough and rowdy weather, and the Wonderland is the most luxurious, fully featured option for those looking for the ultimate home-in-the-woods experience... Read in-depth reviewSee the REI Co-op Base Camp 6

 So there's clips right here, there's four of them, and then there's also these little clips here to make it extra sturdy. Also, all of these poles that help set the tent up and the rain fly clips have a color coating system so that it's really easy to set up. We always start with blue, and then there's black, and then silver. We can have this tent set up in less than five minutes

 And it also comes with these guy lines just in case you can't drive that stake in the ground and you need to extend it a little bit more to get a good spot. Now let's check out the inside of the tent. First of all, the fact that I can almost stand up in this tent is a huge bonus because getting dressed in a tent where you have to lay down or sit down is really hard. Also, you've already seen the two massive doors and check this out

 In case you're new here, we are MK and TJ and we are tent camping in all 50 states. We have camped so far in heat, cold, snow, rain, you name it, which is why we are super excited to show you this tent because we camped nine states in the old one and this one it's just super great. But before we move on, if you're into camping, travel, or tent life, go ahead and hit subscribe so you don't miss anything. Alright, let's get started by talking about the tent specs

 They open up to screen doors, which is really great for the ventilation system. In addition to this, one of my favorite parts is that there's a ton of storage here, here, here, here, here, here, even up top, like right here and here and here and up here. Another thing that REI nailed is the ventilation on this tent, just like MK said, there's screens in the doors and in case you get warm at night, there's little screens right next to where you lay and there's screens on top. All of these things were strategically designed by REI to maximize airflow to keep you cold during the hot or warm during the cold

The REI Co-Op Basecamp 4 four-person tent has definitely stood the test of four-season camping. It is our favorite tent so far and in this video we will tell you why :)

Wondering which tent should you buy? REI makes a great tent. We especially enjoy the Basecamp series with the Basecamp 4 and Basecamp 6 at the top of that list. 

Oh and, we were NOT SPONSORED by REI to make this video, we just love our REI Basecamp 4 tent and have definitely put it do the ultimate test! We hope you enjoy our tent review :)

REI Co-Op Basecamp 4 TENT REVIEW - YouTube

 Let's get the tent out and get it set up. All right, so we got the tent laid out here. As you can tell, it's a real big tent. It's a 110 by 110, which is almost the exact same floor size as the Kingdom 6, which is 120 by 100, I believe, so literally almost the exact same size

 Still leave the rain fly on itself but you're going to get maximum ventilation this way while still having the rain fly on you still have your little porch so if you're in a really light rain, really light, you're going to be able to leave everything tucked back like this so that's another really cool feature that I wasn't expecting. Just another cool little perk of the tent. Well guys I appreciate you watching. This is the REI Basecamp 6

 So the tent that we got is the REI Base Camp 6. This is a very similar tent to the REI Kingdom 6 with, I mean, several differences, but it's still a big family camping tent, six person tent, works really well for our family of four. It is not lightweight, it's not small, but I think this is going to work well for us. I hope it does at least, so let's get it out of the bag and set it up and check out what this thing's all about

 We will have a more comprehensive review of this tent after we use it a couple times definitely in some sort of weather to be able to give you a more honest review of the tent itself. But so far just setting it up, seeing the features. We really like it. It's really cool and we're really happy with it

This is not a full on review of the REI Base Camp 6 tent. This is the first time we set the tent up. This video is to show how to set the tent up and talk about a few of the features of the tent. It seems to be pretty sturdy and well made. I do wonder about the ventilation and the rainproofness of the tent after our experience with our newer version of the REI Kingdom 6. When we do a full review of this tent, I will post a link to that video below.

This is a link to the REI Kingdom 6 tent review we did several months back:

2020 REI Base Camp 6 Tent - A Setup Guide and Initial Tour ...

 Sure, it would be tight, but you could do it if you wanted to. So I say the six person rating of this tent is actually pretty fair. And if you want to have a more luxurious camping experience, you could also fit in here a queen size air mattress at the same time as the Exped Duo sleeping pad, because I tried that out and it worked also. It's also worth comparing this tent to some other six person rated tents because they are of various sizes

 It's basically a one-ended stuff sack. And so you've got to get it rolled up and then maybe lift it and then have somebody else hold the bag and put it inside, which you can't really do if you're trying to do it by yourself. You kind of have to slide it in there and then lift it up, which is basically what I did when I was packing this away. And I find it just a lot less convenient than a side opening stuff sack like they have with the North Face Wawona or the Eureka Copper Canyon LX6

 And if you want to have a more luxurious camping experience, you could also fit in here a queen size air mattress at the same time as the Exped Duo sleeping pad, because I tried that out and it worked also. It's also worth comparing this tent to some other six person rated tents because they are of various sizes. I did find that the poles were a little bit tricky to get out of the sleeve because they were just coming apart inside of the sleeve. I had a little bit of difficulty getting that out, but it wasn't too bad

 Now, this might sound a little bit strange because it is a six person rated tent. However, it's important to know that this person capacity rating is not industry standard, which means that the manufacturer can actually label it however they like, which is what makes it so important to look at the actual dimensions of the tent or to watch a video like this one where we can actually put it to test. So let's see if this six person tent could actually fit six people. As you can see here, I could actually fit six sleeping pads inside of this tent

I tested the REI Base Camp 6 and rated it on 10 quality categories to give the tent an overall score out of 100 points. Check it out!

REI Base Camp 6 Review (Graded on 10 Categories) - YouTube

 Even with the partial mesh doors open, rainfly vents propped up, and floor vents unzipped, the Base Camp 6 simply can’t compete with a mesh-heavy design. It certainly does the trick in moderate temperatures, but the solid fabric side walls and full-coverage rainfly limit air circulation. The pricier Marmot Limestone beats the Base Camp fairly easily in this respect. The Marmot has a healthy dose of mesh on the front door, sides, and roof—all of which help to keep air moving on muggy nights

 Editor’s note: We usually provide a live price comparison table below our outdoor gear reviews, but the Base Camp 6 is sold exclusively by REI. You can see the Base Camp 6 page here and support us in the process. Thanks!

 Secondly, you get two large doors and vestibules with the REI (the Cabela’s comes with just one). And finally, the Base Camp has far better interior storage with its 14 well-distributed pockets. Unless you need 4-season-worthy weather protection, the Base Camp is the more well-rounded design. Lastly, Big Agnes’ Big House 6 is another impressively livable tent at a good price
