My Review of SingleNest Hammock
Originally submitted at Rock Creek Outfitters
The SingleNest Hammock by Eagles Nest Outfitters is super compact to pack and gives you the luxury of rest in a single hammock. Fits one person easily with plenty of relaxing room and holds up to 400 pounds, which is only applicable with two sturdy points of support (large trees, rocks, etc)....
A great sleep!

Pros: Easy Setup, Drys quickly, Quality Construction, Well Designed, Attractive Design, Good Size, Comfortable
Best Uses: Car Camping, Relaxation, Year-round, Families, Backyard, Backpacking
Describe Yourself: Midrange Shopper
I have used my Hammock extensily during the late spring, summer, and early falls seasons. It takes a little getting used too at first but after a night or 2 its hard to ever sleep on the ground again. I have also had this product get soaking wet (due to a leaking camel back) I took it out and hung it up and in 30 minutes DRY!

Pros: Powerful, Lightweight, Compact, Easy to Light
Best Uses: Backpacking, Hiking

What Is Your Gear Style: Comfort Driven
Its hard for me to give something 5 stars. But this does exactly what it says. It lights fast and cooks fast, plain and simple. It does not care for the wind and cold (10 or below) and can be a little shaky so make sure its on level ground. But it will still works well in those conditions. I have used it in the rain, mud, sleet, and snow. It has never failed me.

My Review of Hubba Fast & Light Tent (1 Person)
Originally submitted at Rock Creek Outfitters
The Hubba Fast and Light Tent (1 person) by MSR is the ultimate freestanding solo tent. The Hubba weighs less than 3 pounds (1.3kg) and has been given a new, all-in-one hub-and-swivel pole design that is stronger than ever and still simple to use.
Super light
By Jkayaker from Dalton ga on 2/4/2010
Pros: Packs small, Easy To Set Up, Lightweight, Waterproof
Cons: Zipper Snags
Best Uses: Backpacking
Describe Yourself: Avid Adventurer
What Is Your Gear Style: Comfort Driven
This is a very well designed tent, it has two small pockets on the inside. I have stayed in it in the rain and when it was dry outside. The tent is narrow so if your claustrophobic this may not be the best tent for you, but it has a roomy vestibule. But with that out of the way it delivers what it promises, Light weight, east set up, mild condensation (show me a tent that has none), and you can with some practice pack it down very small.

My Review of Trekker Chair
Originally submitted at Rock Creek Outfitters
The Trekker Chair by Therm-A-Rest is their lightest, most compact convertible chair sleeve that sets up fast and is easily adjustable for maximum comfort. Just put your sleeping pad inside the inserts on each end, and cinch down with the side straps.
Excellent Pickup
By Jkayaker from Dalton, GA on 2/4/2010
Pros: Compact, Lightweight, Dries Quickly, Easy to Pack, Comfortable
Best Uses: Backcountry Camping, Campgrounds
Describe Yourself: Avid Adventurer
There is nothing better after a long day on the trail than to be able to sit and lean back (and I don't mean on a log). I have carried a Crazy Creek for years. But I wanted something lighter weight, and easier to pack. And I found the perfect solution. This chair is it, it rolls up small (about the size of 2 tent poles), its comfortable and dries quickly. Just watch where you sit you butt you could puncture you pad, and watch out for sparks!
