That's awesome. I just got this for mine.
I have two setups from Adventure Hammock Systems (hitch and roof mounted), but I really wanted to try the Outpost. Can't wait for the next camping trip!
Thanks for the review!

What are your thoughts on the hitch mount system? Worth it?

It's solid! I just wanted my hitch back to tow a kayak trailer.
Here's both variants:

Thanks!! My wife wants a hammock and will never tow with her Sahara, so that is a better route for her. Appreciate the feedback and great looking Stomper!It's solid! I just wanted my hitch back to tow a kayak trailer.

It's interesting, but given the price and the roof rack requirement I already have an Eno Nomad hammock stand that is almost the same thing but doesn't attach to the vehicle on one side. This might be slightly quicker to set up as both ends don't need to be set up on site but you're not tied to the Jeep at all.

Doesn't appear to back down that small - it's 52" x 6" x 6.5". Looks like you would lose a rear seat / have to fold down to get it in. Suspect others, like me, have quite a bit of storage in rear of Jeep already that would be hard to fit.
My current hammock is in a bag about the size of a baseball hat. It requires two trees, but in Midwest those are everywhere. I could also use an eyebolt on rhino rack and then just need one tree / structure!

Trees aren't usually a problem - tree spacing at campsites can be (I'm a Scout leader - it happens, especially at our council camp). Driving into a site isn't always an option, so the free-standing stand negates those issues. It packs down small enough where folding down seats aren't an issue.

Fair ball! My Jeep's back area is pretty tight already. Cool concept though!
Agree on tree spacing! Long enough (and tight enough) guidelines can help but yeah, you aren't stringing a hammock across 100 yds!

I do like that shelf; might need to look into it.
