A Hammocking Tip


There have been several questions concerning insulating your Green Armadillo Backpacker Hammock. When you sleep on the ground heat gets trapped between your body and the ground. If you are sleeping in a hammock, that heat is lost because the distance between you and the ground increases therefore causing you to lose that important body heat..well here is a simple solution to fix this! The easiest way to keep your hammock insulated is to put your sleeping pad at the bottom of the hammock before you get in with your sleeping bag. We also recommend using a ultralight backpacking pillow for increased heat retention and comfort. When you do this, the heat will now be trapped between you and the sleeping pad. For those of you who just can't wait until summer to get out to the back country, this is a simple solution for you to stay toasty on those cold spring nights. As always, thanks for choosing Green Armadillo Gear for your outdoor adventures!

You might find a Green Armadillo Hammock......

There are many of you out there who are wondering what a Green Armadillo Hammock is? One of our primary goals as a company is to enable you to experience mother natures backyard. Get off your couch, Gear up and GO! Green Armadillo is a brand of ultralight backpacking hammocks for anyone! Most people who have ever sat in a hammock will agree that they are extremely comfortable. Hammocks used to be something you would find in the backyard gathering dust and not being used as often as they should. The traditional hammocks also came with a high price because you had to buy a hammock stand if there were no trees, and they are not very portable. With Green Armadillo this is no longer the case. Our hammocks are extremely portable and light weight. All come equipped with a name brand Edelweiss tree kit so you know you can trust the rope that is holding you in the air. Unlike other similar brands, we offer COLOR and variety in our products. Our hammocks can hold 400 pounds and they weigh only a pound. There is nothing more comfortable than a hammock in the wilderness. Green Armadillo hammocks can be used as a chair or a bed. If you are the type of person who doesn't make it to the backcountry as often as others, you can take your hammock to the park for a picnic or a day out. Wherever the wind blows you, Gear up and Go with Green Armadillo! If you have any more questions regarding Green Armadillo Gear visit us at www.greenarmadillogear.com and click on our FAQ section.
