It's going to be warm but I've heard you can get chilly in a hammock. Just wondering what most people do.
Yes, I use my sleeping pad and sleeping bag in the hammock. The sleeping pad keeps the hammock from pea podding me to much.
The other thing is the sleeping pad does add some insulation, so if it is going to be cool.....
