Just back from WCPP and used my hammock for the first time. I got a Clark NX-150 for Christmas from my family. What a treat. The most comfortable sleep I've had in the bush for a long, long time. No numb arms or sore hips. I used my thermorest - worked OK. I agree about the tarp feeling a bit small. I may look to upgrade at some point. I think it would be hard to go back to the ground. You do lack a little privacy. Not an issue up there with the guys, but could be an issue if you jump out in your tighty-whities...

Congratulations. Welcome to the addiction. Hold on to your wallet.
