DD,

I spent a week in my Hennessy hammock on a trip to Quetico last year. The weather was fairly warm and I used a poncho liner as a blanket rather than fighting my sleeping bag. When the weather cools a bit I use a closed cell pad modified with wings under my bag, but a quilt would work just as well because the insulation on the bottom of a sleeping bag is of little use in a hammock. I think a Big Agnes bag with the sleeping pad pocket might work well and keep you from sliding off of the pad, but I'm not sure it would provide enough insulation on the sides in cooler weather.

Here is a link to a site with a lot of useful info on hammock camping:
