First Look at the Hennessy Jungle Explorer Zip XL: A Roomy, Weatherproof Hammock for Serious Adventurers

The Hennessy Jungle Explorer Zip XL in woodland camo makes a fantastic first impression, particularly for those looking for a versatile, all-in-one hammock system. This hammock is designed for individuals up to 7 feet tall and weighing up to 300 lbs, making it a roomy and durable choice. The standout feature is its asymmetrical design, which allows for a flat, diagonal sleeping position, providing excellent support and comfort during extended use.

The included Hex Rainfly offers outstanding weather protection, even in heavy rain, making it ideal for unpredictable environments. The double-layered nylon construction adds comfort and bug protection, blocking mosquitoes from biting through the hammock. Pairing this with the Radiant DoubleBubble Pad, which fits between the two fabric layers, helps retain body heat and prevent cold spots, enhancing comfort during colder nights.

Setup is relatively straightforward, though it may require a bit of knot-tying practice for optimal tension and placement between trees. For added convenience, the hammock comes with Snake Skins, which allow you to pack and unpack the hammock quickly and easily. The entire system packs down compactly, making it a great option for hiking and camping.
