4 hour pocket warmer in your bag 30 minutes before bed makes it nice and cozy, I keep a second one in my ridge line bag incase I need it later in the night,

Great hacks. I have recently ordered a hammock setup. Thanks

If you don’t want to use a pee bottle and you don’t want to get out of the hammock, just turn to the side and pee out of the hammock. Make sure not to step into the pee in the morning or pee on your shoes

Pro tip: using appropriate tarp configurations eliminates the need for under/over quilts. First pitch your hammock as low to ground as possible without touching the ground. Depending on the conditions you can A-frame your tarp and stake the edges to the ground, using leaves to fill in any gaps. This method blocks all but the strongest winds. It creates a smaller cavity cutting down on heat loss. And it still has two small windows that allow for ventilation and keeps condensation to a minimum. Another configuration is the cocoon wrap, sometimes known as the burrito roll. This one works great in severe weather. Another Pro tip: attach a drip line to both your ridge line as well as the hammock's tie up points to keep water from running down the lines and into your hammock.

Cool video I use a peanut butter jar they seal tight and have a large mouth. I tried the sleeping pad it slid around too much I ended up throwing it out in the middle of the night. I now have a under quilt. In cool weather I add a piece of reflectex I use my sleeping bag inside the hammock upside down.

Why are you putting your hot water bottle outside the hammock lol...
:->
After a bit of a video binge, I'm wondering why nobody sews a tape for a karabiner to hang boots from into their hammock...

Wanted to thank you for these tips, I used the zipper to the guy line and an empty Gatorade bottle for you know what. Plan on using these from now on.

[dannykobold]

On tip number two, you know that bottle would make a great foot warmer😄

[barron]

Good info. I use a large Skippy peanut (no pun intended) butter jar. it has a wide mouth and a very good seal.

Great video brother thanks for sharing

for tip number three just get a small mesh laundry bag.

If you can't get through the night without needing to pee, you probably need to get checked to see if you're pre-diabetic or diabetic. I had that issue at 42, then got my blood sugar down where it belongs and it stopped.

My cold weather hack is to wear down jacket and down pants in addition to my 40 degree top quilt and underquilt. It is like wearing a sleeping bag.

[kristopherbichsel]

At 32* and not underquilt, I had no issue with the water bottle opening (just capacity). After underquilt, I could pull it over the side.

Hey mate, thanks for the video, Can you share the brand of your pillow or where it was purchased. I like the flannel square cut as it looks like it would be great for winter hammock camping. Thanks in advance

[fives]

Ive been hammock camping for quite a while now and I’m trying out new brands for my gear. Is there any way you could drop and amazon link to the pillow ? If you can thank you. Great video btw!

[moonmorth]

When it comes to your tip with the sleeping bag and the mat are you supposed to sleep on top of sleeping bag or in it?

[warrior.]

The one problem that I have with a sleeping bag and/or pad is that I fall out a lot.
