But I find it easy to swallow that pride when I'm trying to help out the boys. At least that's the self-justification I feed myself. I do find that the older I get the easier it is to take a pass on the pride issue. I ain't 17 anymore, it's been a while. If its helping me on the trail or in the canoe I take the help as my wife has threatened me to take them up on it. Link to post Share on other sites

One night the wind shifted round to be at right angles to the hammock. I ended up getting sea sick from the swaying! Weird thing is I don't actually get sea sick at sea. My Hennessey has tie outs on the side of both the hammock and rainfly to minimize this. Never been through a severe storm to test the limits of this, but my guess is that such a storm would be bad enough to affect anything less than a 4 season tent as well.

Yes I tied down the ties outs with hiking poles, canted the tarp into the wind (more like a wing) and hung it closer to the ground. Link to post Share on other sites
