I've been looking at these for a few weeks. Trying to figure out the ins and outs. I would be using it at ground level mostly. But I would like to try it up in the tree too. I'm assuming you stay tied in. That seems like it would be pretty uncomfortable sleeping in a saddle with biners and lanyards hanging everywhere. I guess a rock climbing saddle would work. I've seen tents for them. Does it come with the tent or is it extra? I'm having trouble understanding being tied in and a tent over you. I guess a few feet of slack would work. If it was raining looks like rain would run down your line and right in your lap. Thanks for any opinions, Ben.
 
I have a Hennessy camping hammock that I love. Wouldn't work in a tree tho bc you climb in from the bottom. If you're going to stay in a saddle anyways, maybe try a medium grade hammock like Eno or similar?
 
I've used them a lot.
They are actually strong enough that you can tie into the hammock for sleeping.

Is that a grill I see in that first pic? And a fire pit? Looks like ya'll are set up pretty good there.
