Comments about ENO DryFly Rainfly:

After reading the other reviews on this item, I have to defend it.
I understand that you can buy other rainflys out there that might be a little bit lighter as well as a little bit easier to setup. But when it comes to versatility and price, I feel that this fly will win you over. It can be a little bit on the confusing side the first time you set it up, but after you realize that all you have to do is put the tent pegs in the ground, tie the cord on the peg and then its a very simple tightening at the fly itself. The first time I had the fly setup, I thought that maybe having 6 tie downs was a little bit excessive... But after the first rainfall with a nice breeze, I realized that the tiedowns do a great job in protecting your hammock from getting nice and drenched.
The cordage is nice and sturdy, and I have not noticed any wear whatsoever in the several times I have had it setup.
All in all, I feel that it is a great rainfly that compliments the ENO hammocks nicely.

Comments about ENO DryFly Rainfly:

I've been tarping it for years now and the fact of the matter is that it takes time and practice to master this. Once perfected, the possibilities of set-up are endless, whether pitched above your hammock or sleeping bag.[...] My fly was not packaged as in the picture (w/ compression strap)but instead in a slender, cylindrical stuff sack (Better design IMO).ENO told me they changed packaging and I ended up staying on the phone with them comparing our favorite hiking spots in NC mountains. BTW the fly is not sil nylon as stated above but is a PU treated nylon. ENO does however offer a sil nylon version in a leaner shape called the Profly. Yes, there are lighter tarps on the market but for the money you get a durable, relatively lightweight(20 oz) versatile shelter that won't break the bank.

Comments about ENO DryFly Rainfly:

You can find larger AND lighter silnylon tarps (half the weight!) out there for just a few more dollars. This has 6 tie downs which is unnecessary and means you are bringing a couple extra stakes with you. The shape and size also prevents you from being able to get the tarp down on the ground to protect from strong winds. Being able to block the wind is a huge plus in cool weather hammocking.

Comments about ENO DryFly Rainfly:

This product works great. It can be a little time consuming when being set up, but once it's dialed-in, there are no problems. I've been in sideways rain, and stayed dry. I've used the hammock/rain fly combination on many trips over 4 years and it's held up well, and is light to travel with. I've been comfortable in the low 30's temperature,but never tried it in the 20s.

Comments about ENO DryFly Rainfly:

I've only used this once so can't speak for durability yet, but the design is spot on to keep you dry. My only negative is it takes a little bit of time to set up (8 tie points), but once secured in ground/tree you can easily adjust string tension near dry fly. This past weekend I decided to bring rain fly because of a 40% chance of rain near Hemmed-In Hollow waterfall in AR and I'm glad I did. The heavens opened with bright spider lightning and strong winds. I'd check the fly with headlamp light throughout the night; the fly never flew away and even protected me and girlfriend from 2 finger diameter branch that fell from above; we woke up bone dry. Next morning we found out the same storm cell that hit us spawned a F4 tornado in Joplin, MO about 2hrs away; reported as one of the deadliest since 1950...I love this thing and highly recommend it. My prayers go out to Joplin.

Comments about ENO DryFly Rainfly:

I found ENO in 2003 way before they were selling nation wide and bout their one man hammock for dump camping and short backpacking trips where weight could be sacrificed for comfort.

Anyway, my friends started trading in the tents for the Hennesy Hammocks. As a result, since I had the hammock, it was cheaper (and lighter if I recall) to get this rain fly and the bug net.

Overall this system is way more complicated to set up then the Hennesy, but once you get the hang of it, it's a hell of a set up.

The rain fly itself is awesome. It's big enough for three men to sit under all evening during a downpour with relative comfort. The extra two tie downs add complexity, but give you a ton more strength in the wind and 4 more drip paths (it really has to pour to get drips off the edges).

I've had this for 9 years and it still is holding up (70 ish days in the woods). I finally gave it a good shot of revivex this past spring after moving to the pacific northwest, but that got 'er back in shape.

I'm old now, and my back can't hang with sleeping in the hammock anymore... but I still bring this along on kayak trips and backpacking trips when the weather looks bad.

Great piece of gear to add to your collection.

Comments about ENO DryFly Rainfly:

I used this on a recent 4 day trip on the Georgia Section of the AT and it performed well. Even with a strong storm blowing in, I was able to stay dry under the tarp system and had no complaints. This was a major thunderstorm and it didn't even flinch.
