Has anyone tried this combo?

I am 6"1, use a 2.5" pad (Exped UL7 DM) with a 6'6 bag or quilt and I am wondering if I could be comfortable here without touching the sides.

Thanks
Derrick

Hi there, Not sure about the hexanet part of the equation but I am 6 ft 5 and used an Ultamid 2 several times with a Synmat UL7 and a XX long and Wide 0 degree EE Enigma!

This is one shelter I regret selling, and will probably be ordering another

YMMV

Hi, sorry to resurrect a long-dead thread, but did you ever try the combination above? I am considering the same thing, but would also like to know how the UL7 fits in the Hexanet…and if the Hexanet will fit in the Ultamid 2.

The problem is that I am 6'0", but sleep on my stomach with my arms under my head (like a pillow). I would guess that for all intents and purposes this is the equivalent of a 6'4" person.

Any insights would be appreciated.

Thanks.

I do not think the Hexanet will be long enough, but the MLD Solomid XL inner might work. I recently received the inner and another Ultamid 2, LOL, I ran out of time but a lot of potential here Ag 6 ft 5 the net is fine when set up well, With proper placement of Zpacks Adhesive Loop or 2 this net could sit just right.

Hmmm, that looks good. I see you are parting with the ultamid….are you considering parting with the solomon? If this isn't an appropriate place to ask…well, sorry about that.

Thanks.
