Hennessy Hammock Jungle Expedition Zip Woodland M118 review

This is an evidence-based assessment of Hennessy Hammock’s Jungle Expedition Zip - Woodland, SKU M118 and UPC 832667000778. Its dimensions and 250-pound body limit align with the Jungle Expedition M18 family, but the Woodland offer is not just a color choice: the maker lists a much larger hex rainfly and longer webbing. This review relies on the exact listing and paired product record, not personal use or testing.

The Woodland package changes the shelter pieces

Hennessy specifies a 120-by-59-inch lower body, six-foot height limit and 250-pound hammock limit. It is a ten-foot fabric body with side zip, attached 30D No-See-Um mesh, asymmetrical cut and a two-layer bottom designed for a separate Heat Reflecting DoubleBubble Pad. The standard Jungle Expedition M18 is supplied with a parallelogram fly; M118 instead lists a double-wide hex canopy measuring 143 inches along the center line by 120 inches across. The pad remains a separate purchase, so this bigger fly does not add warmth underneath.

The page describes longer TreeHuggers and its specification row says 1.5-by-72-inch webbing, with 8.2 ounces of straps excluded from the packed-weight claim. A generic included-items paragraph later says 42-inch webbing. Because these statements conflict, verify the exact length for the M118 seller offer rather than assuming the generic boilerplate is model-specific. The associated M118 product photo used here is its Jungle Expedition-labelled Woodland storage sack; it does not show the hammock deployed or establish package performance.

What the published mass does—and does not—say

The page gives 3 pounds 10 ounces / 1,653 grams packed before the stated 8.2-ounce webbing. That is a manufacturer specification, not a review measurement. The package is not an ultralight choice, and no independent scale reading or exact fabric test is available. The stated height and capacity figures are also for the hammock body only; they do not rate the rope, webbing, anchors or trees.

The two-layer lower section is an important distinction from Hennessy’s one-layer Expedition Zip - Woodland, while the M118 body shares the nominal 10-foot / 250-pound screening boundary with the Jungle Expedition M18. Its practical reason to compare is therefore the Woodland finish and broader fly package, balanced against added packed mass, uncertain webbing copy and the need to buy the named pad separately if under-body insulation is required.

Separate cosmetic-second offer: inspect the actual condition

Hennessy also listed a separately identified “Cosmetic Second” M118 offer. Its product record uses the same model SKU and UPC, and the page repeats the M118 body, fly and webbing specifications while adding SnakeSkins. That makes it a covered variant of the same hammock body for feature matching, not an erased or merged sale row. The exact listing does not describe or photograph its individual cosmetic blemish, so a buyer must ask what is marked and verify the actual item, condition terms and any return or warranty conditions before deciding. SnakeSkins are a storage aid, not an extra rainfly or insulation layer.

Shortlist the standard M118 if its larger hex fly and included screen align with the trip. Before buying either offer, confirm the M118 identity, included fly and the webbing length, read the current setup instructions, and ask about the cosmetic-second condition when applicable. Do not infer that the product image shows the exact item’s blemish or that a maker capacity figure proves comfort or whole-system safety.
