Description
My last outing was in August, hiking from Waipio Valley to Waimanu Valley. Its about an 8 mile hike passing thru 12 gulches. Waimanu Valley is a beautiful place and is decorated with about 6 waterfalls. If you ever plan to hike there, plan to stay at least 3 days there. We just stayed over night and no real time to recuperate from the difficult hike. All three of us had tents and sleeping on the ground is difficult even tho I had a thermal rest bed pad. Anyone with back problems will not be comfortable on the ground. So I researched the internet, found and bought a Hennessy Hammock. It is great and very comfortable especially for the bad back. The trick of sleeping in a Hammock is to sleep diagonal and not straight. My Hammock below. Aloha and thank you for viewing

looks like an awesome trek though the wild, cool tent
That is so cool! I'd think it would be of added advantage if you're camping in areas prone to some of the more unpleasant critters like tarantulas and venomous snakes. Nice shot!
is that tent hanging??? cool! and how fast you got up the trail! I would never do it in that time! Rita, stop the smoking!!! LOL
