Hammock works as Bivi! - No trees in Arctic Tundra!

This was shot on the very last day of Midnight Sun in the barren tundra of Arctic Sweden.

There are not many trees there, and the ones that are are usually too flimsy

I just set down my hammock as a bivi-setup, then used the shrubberies to tie the hammock lines to keep it taut.

You get a great view with the bugnet, overlooking the lake the whole time as the sun kisses the horizon on the last day of 24 hours sunlight

One of my favourite locations on earth which I love returning to time and time again!

Don't have me for this... but I prefer Pad over Underquilt now...

So, for over 7 years I've been hammock camping.

I've had the LSoH Toaster Underquilt - a sublime piece of gear! However, regardless of how I setup the UQ, the hang, the tensioning lines, etc - there will often be one little space where a draft can get through. If not now, then in 4 hours at 2AM after I rolled over 9 times

Even with a -20 UQ, a tiny gap can make a difference.

In my TTTM Pro Mat hammock I put my Thermarest X-Therm NXT XL pad in the sleeve underneath and secure it and WOW

Just... everything is more comfy. The little bit of 'cushion' underneath, the heat stays better, a tiny bit of structure, and I just use my UQ to wrap my body with as a regular quilt.

Especially when with my girlfriend the comfort is way better! Seriously had no idea this would be so good

BONUS: If you don't have a hanging spot possible, you can make a Bivi instead - just do the exact same setup but on the floor with the ends tensioned off. Worked well in Arctic Tundra

Can certainly recommend!

Hammock Camping on sub-tropical Madeira Island!

In places where there was pretty much no chance of finding flat ground, hammock camping is a serious game-changer!!

Plus not having to worry about bugs crawling all over!

About 2kg - usually I only see little guys barely larger than my hand.

The amount of ink this guy kicked out for 10+ minutes is crazy - next time I want to try to save that ink for nice risotto
