I know guys a LOT bigger than you who sleep in camping hammocks, Vic... I'd be more worried about the trees coming down than a good heavy duty hammock failing.



My hammock setup has seriously extended the amount of time I spend in the woods. I don't get much vacation for week-long trips, but I'll go out in even the sloppiest wettest weather with my hammock, and be comfortable, when I knew I'd be miserable if I was on the ground in the mud in my tent.
