So, got my Hennesy super shelter, hooked it up. I like how TH stuffs the whole thing in the pack sleeping bag and all.

This may be a silly question...

Will I be O.K. Compressing the whole thing? I can't see why not, just wanna make sure. I have the entire setup (hammock, super shelter, sleeping bag, pillow and straps stuffed in the bag, just have not compressed it down.

FWIW, my entire sleeping/shelter setup is saving me about 2 lbs vs my old tent and pad.

Seems to me you should be OK.

How much space does the entire thing take up when compressed?

Haven't pulled it down tight yet, but it fits in a 10x 18 stuff sack.

That's pretty impressive.
