How to Choose a Hammock
Hammocks have become serious hangout gear for the outdoors. Sightings of these colorful slings hovering between trees are becoming more and more common. For some, a hammock is the ultimate chill-out spot. For others, it takes sleeping under the stars to a whole new level. If you’re thinking about getting a hammock, we can help.
When choosing a hammock, consider the following factors:
Size: The main difference here is single vs. double; most people choose a double for comfort, not necessarily because they plan to hang with a friend.
End use: For backpacking, weight is the key consideration; for camping and hangout time, durability matters most.
Accessories: You need a suspension system (straps) to set it up; other popular options include an under quilt for cold temps, a tarp for rain and a net for bugs.
Hammock tents and sleep systems: Hammock tents usually include a hammock and all the accessories needed for sleeping overnight. You can also build your own system, starting with a hammock, and then adding accessories later to create your own backcountry or camping shelter. Continue Reading

Garden on the Go
If you are living outdoors and want to grow your own food, you will need to consider factors such as sunlight, water, and soil quality. You may need to dig or till the soil and add compost or other soil amendments to ensure that your plants have the proper nutrients to grow. Additionally, you may need to install fencing or other barriers to protect your plants from wild animals or pests.
Some outdoor crops that are relatively easy to grow include tomatoes, peppers, cucumbers, beans, and herbs like basil, cilantro, and oregano. These crops are best suited to warm climates with plenty of sunlight, and many can be grown in containers if you don't have access to a garden.
How Much is a Good Pole?
Fishing poles can vary widely in price depending on factors such as the materials used, the brand, and the intended use. Prices can range anywhere from around $20 for a basic children's pole to several hundred dollars or more for high-end models.
For example, a decent model spinning rod for bass fishing may start at around $40 to $50, while more high-end models can cost several hundred dollars. Fly-fishing rods also tend to be on the pricier side, with mid-range models typically starting at around $100 to $300 and high-end models costing several thousand dollars.
