DoubleOwl Hammock
For me, the seriously best gifts ever are the ones I
never thought I needed, but someone else realized I did in
fact need. Wise Owl Outfitters’ DoubleOwl Hammock
fits that bill.
I camp, not as often as I’d like, but enthusiastically
when I do it, and I’ve always been a tent camper. My
circa-2004 REI tent has seen some wear and tear, but I’ve
had no complaints with it.
Then the Wise Owl DoubleOwl Hammock showed up.
It was the camping item I didn’t know I needed. I haven’t
slept in a hammock since an erstwhile and overly adven-
turous trip to Playa Zipolite on the coast of Mexico, long
before my ancient REI tent ever existed. I had forgotten
how nice it is to sway in the branches of a tree.
Wise Owl hammocks are made of lightweight para-
chute nylon and come with the ropes and carabiners to get
them hung properly — and if you care about the trees you
hang from, be sure to get a set of tree straps as well.
One reason I never thought about getting a camping
hammock is because I assumed it would be spendy, but I
assumed wrong. The DoubleOwl is $35.95 and holds up
to 400 lbs. while weighing 26 oz. The SingleOwl is
$25.95, also holds 400 lbs and weighs 16 oz.
Each hammock fits in its own little stuff sack that
doubles as a little storage bag on the side of the hammock
as you nap.
Make your camping friends happy, make your hang
out in the yard friends happy, make your friends who are
complaining about the cold weather and dreaming of
beach vacations happy: Get them a hammock.
