Snugpak Hammock Cocoon
This is a great solution to keeping warm in a hammock.
Based on sleeping bag technology, a novel solution to the problem of a sleeping bag and clothing insulation compressing under the tension from the hammock. This insulating layer fully encases the hammock (somewhat like a giant banana skin) trapping warm air both within the hammock, but also in its generous layer of insulation. The full-length zip allows for easy access in and out of your hammock.
Due to the versatility of the hammock insulation systems, the wide variety of applications and variations in a camp set up it is difficult to establish an overall comfort temperature for these items. As a general reference, the insulation used is Travelsoft with the similar fill weights to our two season sleeping bags. We would strongly recommend you experiment with your setup and gradually build up to more extreme temperatures until you are confident of the overall thermal performance.
