The stand assembles and breaks-down in a matter of minutes and is pretty portable.




I will have to give this a shot sometime. I'm sure it would help!

I've been wanting to build a hammock stand for my backyard for a while now and I finally got around to doing it. I followed these specifications....

Way late here but I see that nobody else responded, so here it goes...

I found this chart online a long time ago and I use it as a general guideline. I do not use pads as my primary insulation in...

I'm a little new to hanging and using a Yeti myself but I slept outside a couple of nights ago in 30F weather with a 3-season yeti and I had no insulation underneath my legs and I had a folded up 1/8...

That's interesting that this subject matter has come up just now. I was backpacking last weekend and as I was putting my 1'' webbing straps around the trees I was thinking to myself that I felt these...

I imagine that those are hard to find these days. You may have to settle for something like this from http://www.woodgaz-stove.com/

I sealed mine but I did use the SF once in a heavy downpour prior to sealing it though. The moisture did permeate through the stitching but it was a negligible amount.

I use the Single Line Tarp Ridgeline purchased from whoopieslings.com. On one end of the line there is a knot bone and on the other end there is a figure nine. then there are two prusik loops that I...

I have a 40F top quilt from hammock gear made out of Argon fabric that weighs 13oz. You may want to consider a 50F Burrow.

I recently acquired a 20* Warbonnet Yeti underquilt and I had no problems sleeping with it on two recent camping trips. The lows were probably mid to high 60's and I did not get hot underneath. I...

I'm heading there this weekend actually.

Here is a site map in case anyone is interested in scoping out potential camp sites before getting reservations.

Shipment notification received! Woohoo! :D

I love the Big Creek area of GSMNP. Do not be worried about elevation gain/losses in this area. You can cover a good amount of ground with little difficulty. 10+ mile days should not be an issue for...

I'm still waiting on an order from 6/22. I'm hoping my gear gets shipped out sometime this week but at least I'm not in too much of a rush to get it since my next big trip is in Glacier National Park...

No tips but dutchwaregear.com sells a variety of quilt hooks that may solve your problem. The ridgeline quilt hook, for example.

Most people prefer down insulation. Packing a hammock with down insulation built-in would be problematic for long term storage since the down should not be stored in a compressed state. Also, you...

I got my 40 degree TQ today. My scale had it at 13oz with the stuff sack included. The argon fabric looks and feels nice. The stitching is top notch. Hammock Gear did not disappoint! :thumbup:

I'm...

I ordered the same exact TQ a week ago. It is nice to get some Intel on the weight and looks of the argon fabric! I was hoping the total weight would be a smidge lower but I'm still pleased with what...

I either can't or do not know how to send you a .gpx via the forum. It is not anything special at all though so I wouldn't worry about it if I were you.

The attached pic is better than nothing...

I think I have some, if not all, the chattooga trail on a .gpx file. At the very least, you could use some software (garmin or other) to view my file and print your own map. I can locate that file...

I do not have much experience with the Chattooga River (backpacked it once, and rafted it once too) but I recently had a conversation with a friend who frequents this area a lot. He suggested to me...

Thanks for the warm welcome! It is nice to see so many people from SC and neighboring states out here. I'm sure I will run into a couple of you one day at a future group hang somewhere!

Hey everyone! I love backpacking and just being in the outdoors in general. Most of my backpacking/camping time is spent in the mountains of Western North Carolina. Let me just say that I am super...
