David, I have both a Marmot Atom and a Marmot Pounder. I use them for different purposes. I use the Pounder for a warm weather bag, especially if I expect...
Note that the North Face Propel is a zipperless bag! I have one and would not suggest it for hammock use. Too hard to wriggle into. No real hood either. It's...
Thanks for the post Bryan. Karen & I also use two separate hammocks when we want to hammock together, but we search for three trees. We'll have to try your...
