Were taking a Hilleberg tent and 2 of the Clark NX250 hammocks for the trip any suggestions ?

When is this trip planned for?

While I don't have the Clarks, there's piles of advice here :)

1) Stay away from burn areas - no mature trees = no place to hang

2) Bring plenty of strap - optimal placements (4" trees 20' apart) are a luxury, and almost never happen. Big trees abound in the wilderness, and they seldom seem to be placed properly

3) Bring your underinsulation pads, as it gets cold there.

4) Another rainfly might give you some additional options (dining fly, more rain protection, windbreak)

5) Something to stand on (small piece of Tyvek, for instance) may be really helpful to carry, as pine needles grab your feet.

6) You may need to be really flexible with both hammocks and tents - usually the best spots for hanging correspond to the best tent pads.

I started off with the Clark NX 150 and have now upgraded to the Flex180.

Clark's are the Cadillac of hammocks IMO.

I chose the WBB Super Fly as my tarp because it can be enclosed like a tent. No mater how strong the wind or which direction it blows from, I stay completely dry.

I too use a ground cloth under my tarp and hammock to help keep my hammock clean.

I have found that switching from a tent to a hammock was the best thing I've done for BWCA camping. It's the best night's sleep I've had in the outdoors and all I need are two trees 10' to 20' feet apart. I don't care if the ground is unlevel, full of rocks or water, or an established tent pad. The size of the campsite means nothing when you use a hammock.
