"LNT is not just about in the park, it has to be global"
I agree with this, but I don't know where you'd get the idea that som people think that it's "just for the park". I've never heard of...
Sure, sure.
I guess you could have a reflective material instead. That way it would reflect light from helicopters or moonlight instead of the material giving off light of its own. Then it could...
Dear readers,
I'm a gram weanie. I also follow the Leave-no-trace philosophy. I cannot help but to think out new ideas for camping and hammocking along these lines, hence this post.
I did my...
Hi, frinds! I feel like a hammock ninja when I am now looking for my second hammock for the '12 season :D
What's most important to me is weight (yes, I've become a gram- hunter) but also being...
I found this. Looks very interesting.
I have a Claytor hammock and am itching to go out hammockin' in the snow. But, I have this thing about blending in with the environment...
Thought I'd make a "copy" of the existing tarp but in...
Ok the videos are finally sorted and approved. enjoy =)
And thanks for the praise. :D
video freezes...?
Thanks sparrow.
I read the thread but the first video still won't show up...
changed the image url to the BB- code but am seeing full-size pics... :/
But that's all right I guess.
Yeah I've been trying to fix it...
How do I make the thumbs clickable?
The vids are "being reviewed" on youtube so we're waiting on them...
Are the pics clickable to you, Jeff?
Sorry guys.
oh... :rolleyes:

There are lots of old legends and tales of trolls, faeries and other mystical creatures from the swedish forests of old....
Just putting in a suggestion on a subcategory on other outdoor gear- clothes and equipment. There is so much knowledge here on the forum which is very valuable to all of us, it would be great to have...
Hi Bomber, min danske ven (my danish friend)
Thanks for the videos, will lunge on them as soon as i write this done.
I like light :D I bet I'll get a lighter hammock as well eventually.
He's...
Aaaaand today it's back to raining.
Thanks for the replies guys.
Looked through your links and am sketching on a custom suspension. Will post that in the suspension forum when it's ready. But...
Ok went out to hang my 1st hammock for the 1st time today. The rains finally stopped so I got a chance. Here's some pics:

Welcome to the forums! And greetings from Malmö! :D
I got it!! :D
But it's been raining lika mad here so haven't tried it yet. Also what is the preferred method of hanging it up with the original straps?
Exactly right.
I haven't even gotten my hammock yet, but already I ended up in a discussion feeling forced to defend a hammock vs a tent. As if the benefits weren't obvious. He was trying to "find...
Ordered. :D I hate waiting... :D
You're the MAN!! Thank you so much. It'll easily fit with space left over. Maybe I can even put it in a compression sack.
I owe you one my friend.
How's it going Rocker? I'm all giggedy to see those pics so I can order :D
I think it's all about what you prefer. I'd suspect most people like to keep their bedrooms (and hammocks) cool.
cold sleeper = prefers cool/cold
warm sleeper = likes it toasty & warm
Andy:
Yeah we've got some good knifesmiths over here for sure, especially in the north there is more of an outdoors tradition (Lappland etc.), a lot of hunters, fishermen and lumberjacks =)...
Ok, thanks Rocker. Will order after I see it fits.
Gringo:
They wick water, right? Are there circular carabiners or something to put on the suspension to get the water out from the cords?
...
'cause I need to know if it'll fit in my pack with enough room left over...
Oh and by the way- Does anyone have a pic of the Claytor pack with something for size comparison?
WOW! What a welcome! haha I don't think I've ever met such a happy bunch of people. Must be all the hammock hanging making you so content with life :D
And I've never had anyone make a video for me...
Thank you everyone for your replies. I think I'm gonna go with the Claytor after all. I have a gut feeling about it. And I haven't heard a single bad word about it. Maybe I should view the size as...
Ok so here's my dilemma. I can't make up my mind. I need someone to tell me what to get :D
But seriously though, I have been comparing hammocks for months but still can't decide, and a few planned...
Hey guys, this'll be my first post although I have been reading the forums for a while. I have read and hear a lot of good stuff about the users here and a lot of sites directed me here for expert...
