Finding the right place to set up a tent can be a difficult task. Level ground and movable soil free of rocks are both necessary in order to have a comfortable camping experience and can often be hard to find. However, Lawson Blue Ridge takes the forest floor out of the equation. Their unique camping hammocks elevate the user while protecting them from insects and the precipitation, resulting in a pain-free, dry outdoor sleeping experience. The only outdoor elements required are a couple of trees to hang the hammock/tent hybrid. The camping hammock provides a place for outdoorsmen to relax during the day and sleep at night.

 

The Lawson Blue Ridge Camping Hammock ($169.99) features a waterproof rip-stop nylon pack material and is roofed with a nylon mesh webbing. It is supported by a series of poles made from aluminum alloy, as well as brass-plated grommets and nylon ropes. It is designed with two interior pockets, a double coil nylon zipper and can be covered with its waterproof rain tarp. The 90-inch length of this product can support even the tallest of users. It comes in forest green, weighs a mere 4.25 pounds and can be compressed into a portable sac.
