Review: Grand Trunk Hammock. Gear Up or Relax

 

Imagine it…

You’ve spent the day on a vigorous hike. You rose at dawn, and energized by the cool morning air you made it to the trail in time to watch the sunrise as you climb the mountain. Now you’ve made it to the top, and life is good: the birds are chirping, the trees are swaying the breeze and you’re feeling relaxed and happy.

Wouldn’t this be the perfect time for a nap?

Tossing a blanket over the uneven terrain sounds downright uncomfortable – if only you had packed your hammock!

That’s right – there’s a hammock you can pack for any type of adventure. In the past you had to lug a bulky hammock around with you, but that’s not the case any more. The lightweight and portable Grand Trunk Parachute Hammock is perfect for the backyard, camping and beyond.

The Grand Trunk Parachute Hammock can easily be stuffed into its attached sack so you can store it in your bag or car trunk and take it anywhere. It comes with two nautical-grade carabiners, which you can use to attach hanging ropes to the hammock (hanging ropes not included) and put it up wherever you happen to be.

This hammock definitely makes for the ideal sleeping arrangement while camping. It’s spacious enough that you won’t feel cramped, and sturdy enough that you don’t feel like you’re going to fall out. And it’s much more comfortable than the floor of a tent. It won’t complicate things either, since it only takes a couple minutes to set up.

The Grand Trunk Parachute Hammock is made of mildew-resistant nylon parachute fabric with triple-stitched seams – that means it’s ultra durable and won’t smell funky after being stored for a while.

“Grand Trunk makes goods for travel, not trips. Travel is the art of truly seeing the world and experiencing other places or cultures. Whether you’re napping under a tree in a hammock in South America, curling up with a travel pillow en route to your next destination, or pitching a beach tent on one of the USA’s beautiful coastlines, Grand Trunk offers travel accessories to outfit your next adventure.”

So, go ahead and set off on your next adventure. When you’re exhausted from it all, you know you can whip out your hammock for a nap in nature!
