"Would you cut your toothbrush in half because it saves you an ounce on the trail? Would you contract giardia instead of carry a one-pound water filter? If you answered yes, the ProNest is your hammock. Weighing in at a scant 13 ounces and outfitted with ultralight, wiregate carabiners, the ProNest is our leanest hammock. Less is definitely more with the supremely comfortable, ultralight ProNest. ---About Eagles Nest Outfitters, Inc--- In the summer of 1999, brothers Peter and Paul Pinholster decided to permanently escape the traditional workplace and make hanging out their full time occupation. They wanted a business that would challenge them creatively, but also allow them to pursue a laid-back lifestyle. -- They began as a small operation in Florida, planning to travel the East Coast in a ramshackle minivan and sell hammocks at music festivals and community gatherings along the way. In the early years, home was wherever the van was parked that night. The brothers dedicated their days and nights to making and selling the most comfortable hammocks in the world. -- In a short time, the boys found themselves with more business than they could handle from the van. Weary from a life on the road, they eagerly settled down in Asheville, NC and continued growing the business into what is now a thriving company. Today, they continue to supply the best hammocks and accessories to like-minded people across the globe."
