Author: Jon I bought my NA about 8 years ago. I have since spent almost a year of my life sleeping in it. It radically changed the way I backpack. I will never again sleep on the cold hard ground. I have used it in everything from 100+ degrees down to 17 and it has kept me comfortable in it all.
I only had it leak one time after 2 weeks of rain in the mountains of California. I woke up to a drip on my face and discovered that the rain had turned to snow during the night. I knocked off the 3 inches or so that were weighting down my fly, and the drip stopped.
Some friends invited me to camp with them in the Smokey Mountains of NC and I got lots of ribbing about my "silly" hammock. My friends used a large fancy ground tent. During the night the worst storm I have ever camped in came up and it literally blew so hard up the side of the mountain that it rained UP. My friends labored all night trying to keep their fly staked and to stay dry. I simply raised my weather shield and bungee'd my fly down and held on for a rough ride. I eventually slept quite well even though the thunder woke me several times, but the rocking from the wind actually helped me sleep through most of it.
I've got more stories about my hammock, but you get the idea. This is by FAR the best piece of kit I ever bought! It is expensive compared to some gear, but it will, without a doubt, pay for itself in the long run. It is so tough that it could be considered heirloom. I have no doubt one of my kids will be using my NA long after I am gone.
