I am thinking of trying hammock camping. I always kept my pack with me in tent. Is there room for a pack in hammock. Would it be safe or should I hang pack each nite?

I use a torso length UQ and pack in my hammock to supplement for my legs. Never had a problem. Hang your food and things that attract animals to keep from being a bear burrito
Depending on the site and weather I either laid my pack under the foot of my hammock on the pack cover or hanging from the tree strap.

I always hang my pack at the foot end of my hammock under the canopy. Then I pull the pack cover over it from the back (outside). That way it's protected from the weather and I can still get into it easily during the night if I need to.

I have a bridge hammock, and tend to clip the pack onto the spreader bar at the foot end and hanging out of the hammock. I attach my food bag to the spreader bar at the head end of and in the hammock so that it stays put and I dont roll over on my food.

I've really been enjoying my ENO Underbelly. It's a mini hammock under your hammock. Necessary? No. Extremely nice to have when everything's sopping wet? Yep.

Yes, as with other I have used three options depending on the situation...
1) Under my legs in the winter for a smudge more insulation.
2) hung on the tree or my tree straps
3) under my hammock
The reviews are strange. Just clip it to your suspension and be done with it. Also, I just toss it up in my hammock while it's still clipped to the suspension, zip up my hammock, and stow it all away in the stuff sack. Simple.
