    Default Summer section hiker - UQ or HHSS

    I have a Hennessy bottom open that I've been hanging in for the past few years. I love it and not looking to change hammocks. I'm tired of fighting with my Thermarest pad inside it. I had a zfold version and changed last year to the rolled version which was better... a bit. At least it didn't fold up under me. I go on short sections of the AT each summer (a week out in July/Aug) so I don't need tons of warmth. I'm going back and forth on the Hennessy Super Shelter and the Jacks R Better Nest. It feels like the SS would be enough for the time of year I go - and it's clearly much less expensive. Also my Thermarest is 14 oz, the SS is 16.7 oz, and the Nest is 22 oz. I'm also trying to save weight which seems to be another vote for the SS.


    I appreciate feedback and input :-) Thank you!

    I use a super shelter and by far it's a great value for the money. As long as you're staying above 40F you won't be sorry. Also it's really lightweight.
