Staying warm in a hammock can be tricky at best without the right insulation. This video series shows how I go about making an UnderQuilt (insulation hanging against the bottom of the hammock).

  • @ScoutsNOA - This underquilt, while not as compressible as down, still compresses down very nicely into a pack. I tend to leave this in a rather large stuff sack and let it compress once into the nooks and crannies of my pack. I have tried it in smaller stuff sacks and I can get it into a sack that measures (6"x6" square bottom) by 10". Keep in mind this is fully compressed and a very tight bundle at this size.

  • How well does it compress? Is it bulky and when you stuff it what is the size? Thanks.......

  • @1377stick - Thanks! I should be posting video 2 of this tomorrow if I get time. I am trying to get me and the 2 oldest kiddos ready for our trip (less than a week away and I am super stoked!) to the Chatooga River (I can hear the banjo music now) so things are kinda crazy around here with that mad dash to pack and make any last minute gear and stuff sacks. Aaaahhhh! Anyway, tomorrow with the video - hopefully.

  • Looking forward to the rest of the series!
