Excellent bit of gear
Excellent bit of gear. I backed the Crua Koala on Kickstarter, and despite the delays of American governmental shutdown, I got the best hammock I've ever owned. Excellent material, the hammock holds both me and my wife closely. It's excellent for an outdoors trip where you want to be warm and dry up off the ground. It's excellent for a rainy day in the back yard reading under the tarp to the sound of the rain falling. With the insulating blanket below the hammock and a blanket In the hammock, it's warm and cozy, and still has pockets for snacks and a line to hang a reading light. The ONLY downside is for the back country people; it's a LOT of hammock. It's going to be a bit bigger and a bit heavier than similar models, but the tarp fully covers it, the hammock is bigger and wider, and comes with the bug fly built in. Is it more weight? Yes. Is it worth it? If you're not going a lot of miles every day carrying it, YES. I would say it's worth it even if you're in the Infantry carrying a full combat load for an M-60 in your pack, if you're going somewhere with trees, bring this with you. It's worth the added weight.
