Easthills Outdoors Jungle Explorer 118" x 79" 2-Person Double Camping Hammock in Blue, Featuring Lightweight Rip-Stop Parachute Nylon, Removable Bug Net, Tree Straps, and Rain Tarp
Product Description
Overview
The Easthills Outdoors Jungle Explorer is a double camping hammock designed for two people. Measuring 118 inches in length by 79 inches in width, it offers a generous space for resting, reading, or sleeping outdoors. The hammock’s construction is finished in a blue color that provides a visual contrast against natural backdrops.
Material and Construction
Key to the hammock’s durability is its lightweight rip‑stop parachute nylon fabric. Rip‑stop weave incorporates cross‑linked fibers that resist tearing and prevent holes from expanding. The nylon material is also moisture‑resistant, helping the hammock maintain its shape when exposed to light rain or dew.
Bug Net Feature
A removable bug net is included with the hammock. The net can be attached or detached as needed, allowing users to protect themselves from insects during evenings or while resting in shaded areas. The net’s removal option makes it convenient for those who prefer an open design during warmer conditions.
Tree Straps and Support
To secure the hammock between trees, tree straps are provided. The straps are designed to fit a range of trunk sizes and are attached to the hammock’s frame. They distribute weight evenly across the trees, helping to maintain stability and reduce strain on individual limbs.
Rain Tarp Compatibility
An integrated rain tarp is part of the hammock system. The tarp can be deployed over the hammock to create a shelter from precipitation and wind. When not in use, the tarp folds neatly into a pouch, keeping the hammock’s packing volume manageable.
Assembly and Setup
Setting up the hammock involves attaching the tree straps to the desired trees, securing the rain tarp, and positioning the hammock between the straps. The removable bug net is then affixed to the hammock’s frame. Once all components are in place, the hammock can be stretched to its full 118‑inch length.
Ideal Outdoor Settings
The Jungle Explorer’s size and features make it suitable for a range of camping environments. From forest clearings to campsite backdrops, the hammock’s dimensions accommodate two individuals comfortably. Its blue fabric adds a subtle aesthetic element to natural scenery.
Maintenance and Care
Cleaning the hammock can be performed with a mild detergent and a soft cloth or sponge. Rinse the fabric with clean water and allow it to air dry in a shaded area. Avoid direct sunlight for extended periods to maintain the integrity of the rip‑stop nylon.
Storage and Portability
When collapsed, the hammock folds to a compact size that fits within the provided pouch. The pouch also holds the tree straps and rain tarp, allowing the entire system to be transported in a single bag. The lightweight nature of the rip‑stop nylon contributes to a low overall weight, simplifying backpacking.
Safety Considerations
Proper installation of tree straps ensures secure suspension between trees. The hammock’s design prevents excessive sagging, and the tree straps are positioned to distribute weight evenly. Users are encouraged to select sturdy, healthy trees to support the hammock’s load.
Usage Recommendations
While the hammock is engineered for two occupants, it is advisable to ensure both users remain within the 118‑inch length to avoid overloading any single point. The removable bug net allows for adaptable protection, and the rain tarp provides a simple means to shield the hammock from wet weather.
