My hammock is from a company called "Butt In A Sling" (BIAS for short) and the model I have, the Weight Weenie, comes in at about 7 oz. Put that together with an inexpensive silnylon tarp I purchased from Campmor and the two together don't make it to 2 pounds. If bugs are an issue I have worn a head net instead of using a full bug screen so there's another way to cut down on the weight. And, while I understand the comments about being above tree line, about 95% of my trips are either in the Catskills or Adirondacks of NYS. Plenty of trees there so I don't currently worry about not finding a place to hang my hat for the night; so to speak. That's all for now. Take care and until next time...Be well.

PS - I weigh about 210 and so far this has all worked well for me.
