Hammock is on it's way.

Got some lookers, but no takers. How about a 10% price reduction to $315.00. I pick up the PayPal fees, and US Priority shipping. That's about 27% off retail. Brings my net to ~ $300.00.

I tried to get my wife into using a hammock last year, so I bought her the same one that I have. She has never spent a night in it. I have set it up a couple of times, but have not used it. The...

I have this around my waist. Storm Ranger Survival Belt

I did the same thing as Aluminumbling along time ago. I read somewhere that the compression between the SMC descending rings will have adverse affects on the rope over time. I am assuming this is...

"if you're on a super tight budget of 10€/Day. Average budget is 25-30€/day."

Here is a link to a calculator euro to dollar.

Currently a 1.38 dollars = 1 euro. Therefore, €25($34.39) ~...

Where do you put the kegger?

I live in Florida. The temp can drop into the 60s which is not that cold. However, the dampness in around water makes that a cold 60. I bring my thermarest and pad wings. It make for a comfortable...

I have a ways to go more like 2017, but just starting to learn a bit more. I first learned about it from the book "Walk in a relaxed manner Life Lessons on the Camino", by Joyce Rupp. I watched the...

The Camino is on the bucket list when the kids go off to college. It seems like most stay in hostels, does anybody have experience hanging?

I was going to buy a Granite Gear Cloud Cover Pack Fly, but I think I might buy the Jeff's Gear Hammock from Jacks R Better. Thanks, this board is full of info.

Anybody know if these modifications were made to the 1.1 DBL? I am considering a XLC, but may opt for the regular BB. I wanted increased visibility and ventilation. The main difference is you can...

I have practiced setting up my hammock with my trek poles, but I really do not see the need for it unless the bugs are really bad. I think I would just use my space blanket for a ground cloth and...

I have been wanting to head up Hazel or Eagle Creek for a while on the south side of GSMNP. That Tenkara kit looks like the way to go.

Would you post a review after you get it. I am really thinking about pulling the trigger on one and need a little push.

I have been thinning about switching one of my HH Deep Jungle XL for a WBBB XLC. Maybe someone else's hammock always sounds better. I have been comfortable, but it does lack visibility and...

My son inherited a HH Expedition with bottom entry. I sent it out and hand the zipper mod done. They did a great job.

Nice vid. I do a lot of canoeing, I am going to have to check out a kayak trip down in the glades before it gets hot and BUGGY! Packit Gourmet is goood stuff. I like the Tuscan Beef Stew.

That XLC looks like it has great visibility and ventilation. Not that you need the added ventilation right now based on the pic.

I'm inn. Thanks.

I really liked the lightweight trail shoes the model in the first post was wearing.

Excellent reviews. I may try to switch out one of my HH Deep Jungle XLs for a WBBB XLC. I really like the added view and ventilation. The Deep Jungle is comfortable to me, but the view and...

"There are no zippers, shock cords, swathes of Velcro, or any other doo-dads to rub you the wrong way as you shift about and sleep."

Here is the whole blurb.

I have a HH Deep Jungle XL. Bought if for the extra length, but it seems to swallow me up. It seems to wide, and I do not get as much cross ventilation as my sons Expedition. I have thought about...

Check out this new bag from Sierra Designs http://www.sierradesigns.com/backcountrybed.aspx

I bought my first hammock before I knew about HF. It would probably would have saved me some $. I also thought I would get a bigger hammock for added comfort, but it did not work out that way. It...

I read through all of the posts. Maybe I missed it, but did Jax ever disseminate the final rules. The scouts are going to be at Oscar Scherer in the spring, and last time they did not want anything...

I wash my hands and get a dab of sanitizer before and after cleaning fish.

This is an interesting idea. I definitely like having my hands free for my trekking poles. I am sure it worked for them, I just don't know if it is the right fit for me.

Yeah, I was just curios if anyone had used their Camelbak. I see the potential for leaks and I would be screwed if it leaked into my down bag.

I am going on a 2 week canoeing trip to Quetico with the boys this summer. They are teenagers, but I think I am still going to bring a tent. I do not want to miss out on the socializing in the tent....

Do you use your hammock when you go camping with your family? I use mine with the guys or on scout trips, but I usually bring a tent with my family.

It's an adventure. I plan on going from Springer to Fontana in the fall by myself. Its been a long time since I hiked by myself.

Santa brought me a CCS Lean 3 Plus made of silnylon. It has a netting across the front, but I thought I might treat the whole thing. I have never treated silnylon and was not sure that the silicone...

Your trail journals are a good resource and interesting read.

I am going to use my XTherm on my hike in case I want to stay in the shelter.

I have hiked the AT in GSMNP and you are required to stay in the shelters if there is room when on a thru-hike. You will probably only be in the GSMNP for 5 nights. If you are NOBO with the pack it...

I have used Sawyer Premethrin on my clothes for a while, but never on my gear. I am taking another trip in the Q this summer where the mosquitoes can get really bad. It sounds like you can use it is...

Like the idea, but do not want to carry a Naglene. Anybody ever try it in their Camelback?

My son was at NYLT and it was 29 on Saturday night.

Welcome from SWFL.

Most of my family still live in Chicago. I have never seen a picture of a hammock hanging in an ice hut.

Hello from SWFL.

Dustinpn saw your hello. Are you thinking about selling your HH already or another hammock? There does seem to be a little trial and error with the hammocks. Unfortunately, they aren't that easy to...

I ordered my whoopie slings in different colors, so that I could identify the head from the foot. However, I seem to have brain farts the first time I use after it has been in the closet for a while....

Does anyone post a trip report on the hang?

Did you modify the ridgeline or is it the standard length?

I replaced my ridgeline with a Single Line Tarp Ridge Line from Whoopies Slings. I added a line tensionoer (Just Jeff's) to the S biner that attaches the fly to the ridgeline. I also made some...

+1 on the bulk and ease of setup.

I use a Single Line Tarp Ridge Line from Whoopie Slings. I added a short tarp tensioner (Just Jeff's type) to the S biner used to connect the fly to the tarp ridgeline.
