I'll put in a second vote for the Cradle Lounger. I've had mine for a year
and the rest of the group draw straws to get to use it when I'm not in it.
Strapping it to the pack kind of makes you look like a greenhorn, but that
perception is quickly squashed when the judgmental folks see you relaxed in
it after the hike.
