I love the Klymit pad. I have had it two years now and it has been great. I am considering one of their insulated pads now as well.

On another note, I have been considering a Tensa Solo pole for the hammock, for when I only have one tree, but they add about 3 1/2 pounds to the kit, and my hammock, tarp and stakes come in at only 2 1/2 pounds. So yesterday, I decided to try to hang the hammock using the bike in place of a second tree. I have used the bicycle to set the hammock up as a divvy, but never tried to hang it. I was able to hang it successfully. I now need to get better anchors for the tie downs used to anchor the bike. I will get some Orange Screws for softer ground, and Boomstakes for harder ground. I will then be able to use the hammock with only one tree, or pole, post, whatever.
