Most of the time I use a hammock. I have a ID silshelter, and an SMD lunar solo. I don't find any of them "coffin like" any more than any other tent. I also semi frequently pitch my hammock as a solo tent on the ground if on a trip where hammock sites are ok for some of it and not in other places - I only actually bother with the on the ground shelter like that if I know where I'm going will have predominantly no hammocking. (winter camping is a different story)

Hey, all I'm doing is sleeping and reading in it. Not like I'm expecting to need room for the party with the mini kegger and the mythical 20-something hiker chix from a beer commercial <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

Oh, and if I could have only one tent it would be a hammock <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

And if it had to be a tent - it would still be a solo tent - that way if someone else wheedles their way into coming with me they carry their own stuff, and I can snore and fart in my shelter in peace <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />
