riveroneThat was my thought. That 11x4, 7oz BIAS Weight Weenie Micro Hammock cut from 1.1 oz rip-stop nylon is tempting. But on long treks good sleep is important to me, and I'll add a few ozs for that!

Started looking at the sub 8oz models by Humminbird and Butt In A Sling, in the $50 range. Then read reviews as to how short, single layer models made from fabrics in the 1.1 oz range are not as comfortable to sleep in as longer, wider models made of 1.6oz or heavier. Looked at Dutchware, Simply Light, Wilderness Logics ... All in the $90-100 range. Warbonnet's is a bargain in that group at $75. All in the 12-18 oz range ...
Oh the trade-offs we make!
But now were getting a 16 oz, 11' x 5' Warbonnet, made from 1.7oz nylon, with a DWR finish for $63, with whoopies - delivered!
Thats a 9.75 oz weight reduction over my Hennessy. Not as light as a tarp and a bivy, but shirley a damn site more comfortable!
Joy!
