Hammock Gear Hammock/Pack Cover Features

Made of silicone impregnated 1.1 oz. ripstop nylon, with only perimeter seams, it is waterproof without seam sealing.

The 1/8 inch shock cord, around the complete perimeter, with a single toggle insures durable, secure, easy employment as a rain cover. Nylon gross grain corner tabs facilitate quick hanging as a gear hammock either above, below, or along side a regular hammock.

It doubles as a large waterproof pack cover and works well as a gear sack for loose items under a ground tarp. When the four corners are gathered with a cord or the included micro-carabiners it can carry and store 6-10 quarts of water. When placed carefully over a cleared depression it readily serves as a field sink or tub.

The micro-carabiners have several uses. In the pack cover mode, attach them to a corner loop and clip them on any convenient pack strap for insurance against loss in extreme high winds.

They also facilitates quick connect and disconnect to a Hennessy Hammock©. Use one to attach one of the hammock  Gear Hammock corner loops to the HH side tie-out point then use the other to clip the opposite corner loop to the HH suspension line in the vicinity of the knot cover.

    probably one of the most versatile pieces of gear I’ve ever owned!

  2. Van P (verified owner)

    This thing is super handy. It’s fantastic for keeping your pack dry and off ground.

    Question: Are there a couple of small grommeted drain holes in one end so it will drain when used as a pack cover?

    • the jacks

      No. If you position one of the corner tabs at the bottom water will drain out there.
