I reached the same conclusion. I imagine he meant a reasonable distance apart.
I was cold on the surface(not on the bottom) but that's where I noticed it. It sounds like even if I feel OK on the bottom I still might have been cold. I put two thin pads(1/8"?) on the Thermarest...
I was sleeping on the ground on a thermarest air mattress but its only a 3 season, but I thought this had to do more with inflation loss than temperature. Gargoyle, if it doesn't work with my Darien...
Could be, will order a Darien UL soon and see if it helps. Thanks for the advice guys :D And if I still am cold, then to heck with the quilts and I'll just rock the TNF sleeping bag:lol:
HG Incubator(0F). Wasn't content with the fit on the DB 72 which is why I sold it. Thought this was the case until the last night I used it, I realized I wasn't cold on the bottom as I was through...
I have yet another question for you experts. I have a RevX top quilt from EnLIGHTened Equipment that I can't seem to stay warm with. When I used this with my hammock, I always woke up cold during...
Unfortunately I am starting early spring/late winter so I will need the bug net more as time goes on. I like having the net integrated, the more puzzle pieces put together the better :) Thanks for...
Well, I recently sold my Dangerbird 72 because it was just too much material for me and I didn't need the extra weight of the double layer. I am looking at the Darien UL and the WBBB because of the...
Yep, sold to halfastronomical. Thanks:laugh:
I am selling my Dangerbird 72 double layered hammock for $150 or willing to trade for equal priced hammocks(built in mosquito net). This hammock is black on the underside and red on the inside with...
Well I was having the same question but when it came down to it, I went with the X(or whichever one is cheaper). This choice was made based on the color options, gotta rock my orange, and because it...
So how much do these costs and where to buy them :lol::lol::lol:
yikes, if it was still warm enough for bugs I would burn alive in a hammock with the overcover :eek::laugh: I would take a peak at the sun then flip around and sleep in "darkness"!
What would be the purpose of NOT having the overcover zipped all the way? The warm toasty air would break free!
Welcome from Rockford :D
I think I just received a concussion from reading this :mellow:
Dang and it's affordable, wow!
I HAVE FOUND A SOLUTION!
Ok, so before I just used the line locs on each corner(secondary suspension). These would then slip through resulting in gaps. After talking with Adam for some time, I...
The solution was to tighten up the main suspension(the line running through the channels). This brought the UQ up, instead of just pulling it out like the secondary suspension. Then tied off the...
Hmmm, after some thinking and seeing how Shug is able to move his UQ down the channel, maybe I have to tighten up the lines that run through the channel instead of the line locs on each corner of the...
In case you haven't figured this out yet, Imagine tying a line to the edge of the UQ(the "side") and throwing it over the ridgeline, tying it off on the other edge. This would pull the UQ up. I...
Before, the line locs kept slipping until I called Adam and he suggested tying knots on them. Now I have a similar problem, although it doesn't bother me. Once my feet are in the footbox i dont...
Ok so I managed to get the suspension tight, just tied a slippery half hitch on the line locs. I can still manage to fit the width of my hand underneath me. Is this ok? Felt pretty warm, so not...
O dang :scared:
Check out the Kelty Noah's Tarp 12. Nice and big, cheap(sale at Cabela's?) and simple. But....if you wanna spend the money check out the Old Man Winter over at WL. It's some good stuff.
We need a GR group hang :D
O no! Your supposed to face away from the hammock when watering the grass :scared:
Welcome from Rockford, O wait :scared:
Saw Rockford, and thought this was my post! Well I have gear I can let you lone, not much as I'm expanding but yea. Hopped on the bandwagon a month of 2...
Is there tension on your shoulders/feet?
Ever get this figured out? Just curious, I've talked to Adam and tried a few solutions, nothing worked besides making a knot just outside the line loc. I feel like this would create alot of tension...
So simple until you've made it to this site :lol::lol::lol:
Hello from Rockford!
Got no pounds to lose D: sometimes a metabolism is your worst enemy:laugh:
Thanks for the donation :lol::lol::lol:
Wow this stuff looks intense. I imagine the biolite would take a number of sticks to keep it chugging. Wouldn't be too bad to have a lil fire for a while...
Yea I'm not big on the whole DIY stuff, if I were you I would talk to a vendor and ask them. Especially with a quilt, can't be too careful!
Check out EnLIGHTened Equipment, some pretty good stuff there.
Hahaha lucky dog indeed!
I know what you mean Bubba. Try living in America with people who say they get their stuff super fast and I get mine weeks later. Kinda unfair how people almost "pressure" companies into making and...
The worst is watching the shipping status and by the end of the day it's located right outside your city D:
Whoa, didn't even see that on the previous post. Attention to detail at its finest I suppose :laugh:
I'm with you there brother :D any time I see this kinda stuff I scramble for my wallet! Irrelevant but I am looking to buy the stove that I saw on this...
Thanks for sharing, some very interesting things on that website!
When is it my turn to test it out :laugh:
Well don't rule out somethiing that is "too" warm. I have a -40 degree F bag that I use as a top quilt up to 60 degrees. I just have to vent alot. Probably down to 30's is when I do not have to...
Considered what?
I sent my tarp to my grammie to have her sew on velcro. Will have to wait and see, my problem may well be condensation. So if I perform a test and no mist then is it safe to say...
For how long? My tarp didn't mist until it was out for a day and a half. The tarp then became "soaked", giving it that sticky feel. I believe it was then that the misting began.
Wow, such a...
Anyone know of a source that sells orange and yellow(or an assortment of colors) 10D ripstop nylon? Looking for different colors so Tim over at EnLIGHTened Equipment could make me a quilt that has...
I ordered mine a week or two ago so I have the new suspension(I believe). Looking at Shug's video, I will try cinching up the cord locks to the max, and using the "secondary suspension" to cinch it...
Hello! I have an Incubator 0°F UQ from Hammockgear. I have this equipped on my DangerBird 72. I need help making sure it is snug enough so cold air doesn't leak inside. Do I use the cord locks? ...
When I first read this, I thought you kept your dog in a crate when hiking. That would be rough to carry :lol:
Well if you can imagine, condensation forms in little droplets, like the outside of a glass of cold water, before they grow to form big drops. It then makes sense if a big rain drop hits the tarp...
