Another reason I bring a chair is because I use a hammock. I like to use it as a shelf or rifle rest right beside the hammock so my critical stuff is off the ground but immediately outside the zipper opening.

At our advanced ages, back support is important to my pard and I. The days of getting by sitting on panniers or logs are gone.

But like just about everyone in a BC camp, the ground isn't flat nor level. The chairs rock and give out before very long.

We're using $10 - $15 folders that fit in top packs, but always looking for smaller and lighter gear, even with horses.

If you get one, please post a review.

You could also just make your own "Alite Monarch" chair in the woods, just pack in the seat material and lashings.

Using a zip open duffle bag as the seat...

...or a some waxed canvas.

I bought 3 of these for my boys & me:

Very lightweight, tough, and supportive. My son used ours a TON while glassing in western SD last fall and we were very happy with them.
