I may never sleep inside again.
Jungle safari XXL.
Got it secondhand (but never used) on ebay. This thing is more comfortable than my mattress, love it.

I love my camping hammock, that mosquito netting is pretty sweet. Definitely much more comfortable than the ground or an air mattress.

I have a mesh zero gravity recliner on my porch, and I sleep out there about every night. I grab a pillow a small quilt and my dog.
Early spring I will keep my coat on and two quilts. Best place to sleep when it is raining.
You sleep outside every night?

Yep pretty much every night I go to sleep out there on the porch. I did stay in a couple nights when it was really hot and muggy at night.
I have a window open close to where I sleep in case my wife has vagal syncope spells during the night. I am going to pick her up one of those can air boat horns to have in case I can't hear her call for me.
Long wide porch and it is nice. I have gone to sleep and wake as the sun starts to pop up.

I use a Blackbird. Usually do close to 30 nights a year backpacking with it. The coldest I have done was this Feb during one of our snowstorms at the RRG. It got down to 8. I used a hammockgear incubator underquilt. It’s a 20 degree quilt with an extra oz of down. I stayed very comfortable. Didn’t want to get out in the morning.

I gave warbonnet a hard look as well, missed out on a deal on one but im happy with the Hennessy, its massive but i wont be trekking on foot very far. Id buy a smaller one if that ever changes.

We used to do a winter thru-hike every January/February. Those nights that get down into the single digits definitely change things up a bit.

The war bonnet is huge too. Honestly I’d like a less bulky one for backpacking but I do love the Blackbird

My sister bought me a cheap one a couple years back and i just gave it a try this spring and added a cheap bugnet. I liked it so much I decided to upgrade. I quit camping cause tents were a pita and uncomfortable. Campers are just too much. If i cant get my family to hammock camp with me ill go it alone lol. Should be nice for motorcycle trips too. Eff a hotel.
