I slept in my Hammock Gear Circadian Pro for the first time this past week. I'm a side sleeper as well, and I was very pleased to find that I could sleep comfortably on my side in this one. Before this I'd camped in a shorter, cheap/casual hammock from Bear Butt. The Circadian was a big upgrade.

Did a short hike while camping in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park (USA). Spotted this deer along the trail.

Thanks! I've read both of those as well.

I should clarify - I'm looking specifically for novels, meaning works of fiction :)

Haven't tested yet, but they don't seem to hang down very low into the hammock. Both can easily be slid along the ridgeline to whatever position you'd like. On my last couple trips, it was kind of annoying to try to find something in my stuff sack without removing it from the ridgeline. The "organizer" should alleviate this, as it's a mesh material. I can turn on my headlamp and immediately see what I'm looking for.

I might do a test hang in the yard this weekend to find the best positions for them. If I do, I'd be happy to reply back with photos and any thoughts I might have.

We did two nights at Cosby Campground, Great Smoky Mountains National Park near Cosby, Tennessee. Two hammock campers and a tent camper. It was nice enough. A wild turkey visited us for breakfast, we saw a deer on the trail while hiking the area, and the fireflies were a nice bonus after sundown.

Generally I'd prefer dispersed camping / backpacking over staying at a campground, but the convenience of car camping was nice.

Pretty comfy! I just upgraded it with a "loft" (https://hammockgear.com/mesh-ridgeline-loft/) and organizer (https://hammockgear.com/ridgeline-organizer/) to hang on the ridgeline.

Before this I was using prusik knots, carabiners, and stuff sacks to hang stuff inside the hammock (e.g. phone, head lamp, knife, water, etc). These should simplify things a bit.

As a hammock camper, I'm curious: what sort of areas would a hammock open to you where you couldn't use a tent?

I have the opposite problem. I'm considering buying a tent so that I could camp in a spot without trees. I prefer a hammock, because they're comfy, but in some areas it just isn't feasible (on a bald, for example).

First time I'm hearing of this. Thanks for the heads up.

Up until now I've been using Traefik and a pihole with Local DNS records so I can remotely access my services when connected to Tailscale. It'd be nice to be able to point to http://jellyfin rather than http://jellyfin.server.home, for example
