tbh I just want to try taking a tarp instead of a full tent, that's probably the lightest way to go outside of no cover at all. Still have to pack stakes and guy lines and have a way to prop it up if necessary (hiking poles seem to be the main thing for this), though I'd worry some about how sheltered it'd be in a strong storm in an exposed area. Still intriguing though.

Lotka Volterra posted:also you're gonna lose heat faster with that setup, unfortunately yeah slightly less worried about that, with a warm bag and ground pad and in the summer months when it shouldn't be getting really cold... Most of my trips now are with my wife though and she wouldn't go for that. Also kind of rules out the hammock setup as well, lighter and cheaper to use a light two person tent rather than two hammocks, and hammocks aren't great above treeline.

Unless it's getting down around or below freezing at night and then it's kinda playing with fire (or cold blah blah) I want an exped ul synmat but I don't want to pay for one. And a bitchin' tarp setup.
