The VersaTrek Does It All
We began showing off the VersaTrek at trade shows and the response was amazing. One thing was clear right away, we had designed a product that would live up to its name - it seemed like everyone we showed it to found a different reason to love it.
Parents loved it as a mini hammock for their little ones, hunters and anglers loved it as a quick-setup chair, and hammock campers everywhere rejoiced. The days of cuddling up next to your backpack or hanging it in a tree while hammock camping are over - the VersaTrek is here.
Scroll down to discover all the ways you can use the incredible VersaTrek.
Ways To Use Your VersaTrek
Hammock Gear Loft: When set up over or under your hammock you've got a perfect place to store your pack, clip your water bottle, headlamp, etc. and keep all your gear within easy reach. When setup underneath our V9 Strong Tarp, you'll sleep soundly knowing your gear is dry and off the ground.
We've also heard they make great toy and stuffed animal lofts at home, but you can say it's for your 'gear' and we'll take your word for it.
Hammock Chair/Swing: While we think hammocks are great for sleeping in, there are a lot of times when you just need to get off the ground and sit comfortably. The VersaTrek is lighter and stronger than any camping chair and gets you off the ground comfortably.
Cook your food at the campsite, take a break while hunting, or just swing your troubles away on the front porch. The VersaTrek can be hung from a single overhead branch/post (just make sure it's strong enough to support your weight!).
Mini Hammock: The VersaTrek can technically be used as a lie-down hammock but with a comfort zone between 2.5ft - 3ft tall at most, it isn't going to fit most of you.
Our No-Flip Design™ means you can rest easy, but please remember you should never leave children or infants unattended or unsupervised when in a hammock. This product is not designed, sold or tested in any way as a child or baby hammock.
And More And More... Ever since we began testing the product we've heard countless creative ways it's been put to use:
You've used it as a bear pouch while camping (hoisting food up into a tree), as a drag-anchor when boating or kayaking, even as a sling/tourniquet in a backcountry injury.
Go ahead and surprise us, how do you use your VersaTrek?

Hammock Safety
Hammock Safety
Safety Meeting!
For you
Always test your hanging points for stability and never set up your hammock at a height where a fall or malfunction could cause injury to you, or in any way that could injure the people around you.
Equipment, even brand new equipment, can fail. Trees or structures that appear sturdy are not always what they seem. Be smart and always think about your safety first.
We realize that our customer base consists of responsible and knowledgeable outdoor lovers capable of maintaining a safe environment even in situations that appear dangerous to the outside eye. If you choose to disregard our safety recommendations and hang your hammock from anything above a safe height (3 feet or higher), you should always have a safety backup plan in case of failure – a harness, safety ropes, etc. that would protect you from any injury.
For the trees
When used properly and on trees with healthy, strong bark, your hammock suspension should not cause any damage to the tree. However, not all trees are created equal and some trees have a soft bark layer which can be damaged if you're not careful when you hang your hammock.
Killing a tree so you can enjoy a nap isn't a fair trade in our book. If you have any reason to think the tree you're hanging from could be damaged from your hammock use you should always add a layer of padding underneath your hammock ropes or hang elsewhere. Items like a towel or piece of clothing can be used to pad and protect trees while you're on the trail.
We always recommend getting out of your hammock and checking things out after a few minutes of use to make sure you're not causing any damage to the tree. It's up to you to be smart about your impact - leave no trace!!
