Hammocks are wonderful, portable, outdoor couches. They can be bought for as little as $15 at outdoors stores. A good hammock spot is often sunny, with smaller, sturdy trees about 8-10 feet apart, set back a bit from a path so people don't bother you too much.

== Dodd Quad ==
== Frosh Quad ==
The trees and the fence at the western edge of the [[frosh quadFrosh Quad]], near the grills, are perfectly spaced for a hammock. Probably the most consistently sunny spot, especially in the afternoon. == Greylock Quad == So it's not really on the quad, but there are trees outside of [[Bryant]] (on the Route 2 side) that are perfectly spaced for a hammock.
== Mission Park ==
There are a number of trees near the [[Haystack Monument]] (especially on the [[Dodd House|Dodd]] side) that are suitable. Sometimes a bit shady for early- or late-season hammocking. There are also a number on the hill going down to Mission from Paresky, specifically on the Haystack Monument side of the path.
== Sawyer Lawn Quad ==
A few trees can be made to work over by the [[First Congregational Church]]. The trees are a little too thick, and it loses sun in the afternoon.
I’ve seen some people hook their hammock up to a pole and a tree by the marble blocks. Seemed sketchy but worth a shot for prime hammock real estate.
== Science Quad ==
The tree directly accross from [[Morgan]] is probably the best place to hammock on campus.
