Camping Hammocks-A Tent Replacement?

A camping hammock is one of the most comfortable ways to spend the night when you are out in the great outdoors. Many websites advertise their hammocks as being tent replacements; many people shop with this idea in mind. Comfort and sleep time enjoyment should be your primary concern when shopping for a camping hammock, permanent hammock, oversize hammock or any other type. Why? When you sleep outdoors, nobody wants to sing a chorus of "Raindrops Keep Falling On My Head". Camping hammocks can't protect you from the rain. True, there are diehards out there who will simply pull a poncho over themselves and wait out the storm, but your best bet is to pack a tent as a backup in case of a turn in the weather.
