I decided not far into my planning that I wanted to hammock on my thru hike but after doing a shakedown trip have decided to ditch the hammock til it atleast warms up in the spring. Anybody have any advice on tents? I seen rei had a single person at about 2 1/2 pounds for around $170, any rei renters maybe? I'm also still looking into sleeping pads which has proved to be a back and forth thing lol thanks in advance for any help yall can give me
