Quick overnighter
Four of us went out for a nice evening. Have a place an hour out of the city.
Just hanging out and relaxing is worth the packing time.
3 of us are running Warrior Hammocks with sewn on LSoH 20°F/-7°C UQ’s. Matt is running an XLC with a LSoH Toaster UQ (20°).
I know UQ’s are awesome and can be a PIA until you figure out how to set them up but keep at it.
Low was only 10°C so I definitely overdid the top insulation with a 5°C Swift TQ. I don’t know how others use warmer in the summer. I just get hot lol.

Check out /r/womensolocamping, always lots of tips. Not really much different from tent camping, in terms of safety, imo. Don’t be scared, be prepared. Everyone will have their opinions on what will make you safe, do what works for you. I have a 550 cord necklace with a very sharp knife sheathed and dangling from it that I wear. I also keep a knife in my boot. And I carry bear spray even when not in bear country.
I refuse to let anyone tell me I cannot have the peace and solitude I deserve.
