" ... I got this for summertime hammock camping, and it’s been perfect for that purpose in the Southeast. ... This, however, is great for warmer weater hammock camping because it’s lightweight, comes with a nice sized stuff sack, and you don’t need to do any gymnastics getting into our out of your hammock like you would with a sleeping bag. ...
