#143 - The Perfect Trees with Hammock Gear The By Land Podcast

    • Wilderness

Hammock Gear is one of the original cottage companies in the ultralight backpacking space.  When I was just getting into backpacking, it was Hammock Gear that was prolific in the search engines and forums when it came to ultralight quilts.  Having such a prolific and respectable brand represented on the podcast is both honoring and humbling to me.
Adam and Sally from Hammock Gear join the By Land Podcast to talk about the origins of the company, why and how Adam started it in the first place, and to offer some advice to those looking to make the jump to a hammock setup.  
This is one of my favorite kinds of episodes because you’ll actually get to know the people behind the brand which I think is really important, especially these days with so many great options on the market.  It was refreshing to have such a great conversation with a brand that so many people look up to and I have no doubt you’ll enjoy this one.
As a special offer to listeners, Hammock Gear is offering a 5% site-wide discount code to new customers.  If you’d like to take advantage of that offer, use code ByLand5 at checkout
