This list has evolved from the hammock setup I used on my 2018 SOBO hike of the AT.
The goal is to have the most fun, not the lowest base weight :)
List attempts to include only items I own and have some experience with.
I live in the North East and this list is for when the monthly average low is more than 40ºF / 4.5ºC - adjusting down 5ºF per 1000' elevation gain - Generally May - October - I use usclimatedata.com
For areas where I know there are good tree options or I expect muddy conditions.
