Today we are talking about my favorite gear for camping, The Nube by Sierra Madre Research!
This is basically a suspended tent for your hammocks. Jared and I love our tent, but never slept very well on our camping trips due to sleeping on the ground. Plus, our tent would flood during those lovely Texas spring rainstorms.
