Looks Winterdream 12’ with all the pole mods myself. Just curious if you did anything to secure the pole at the peak of the tarp?

I am way over due for a BW trip! With that said, I have to do some planing before I could commit. I'm in the process of planing a trip to CO around the same time with my wife. I'll see what I can...
Can't wait! Just trying to figure out what I can contribute food and drink wise. I'd like to come up with something on the creative side. I was thinking maybe some Swedish glögg on the drink side....
Good Info thanks! I may just rent some stuff to try out. It would be the smart way to go before I go spending money on some new equipment. I have had this idea of wanting to BC ski my gear into...
Well....2 in 8,463 are the odds[emoji6]
Well , this sounds AWESOME! And like it would be a great place to put my full length Zeppelin through its paces. I'm throwing my hat in the ring. Any weekend in December should work for me. Have done...
Haha! Well I'm not new, probably one of the S. WI hangers your talking about.I've been watching this post. Unfortunately I have already planned a car camping trip to Door County with the family the...
I was working down in Corpus Christi last week. I think we may have brought the cold weather Down with us from Wisconsin! It was definitely colder than I expected! Almost was wishing I had took some...
Hmm, I don't know? This sounds suspect! With all the talk of the "Bob Saw". That's a great excuse to get a new one.[emoji16] pics turned out good! I didn't take many, I just have one to...
I'm gonna be there! Just had to see how thing were at work this week before I committed for sure. But now I'm good. Gonna start packing my stuff now! I'm planning on getting there in the early...
I'm trying to remember the last hang I attended here. If I remember right we stayed at John Schultz the first night, and Glen Wendell the second night. John Schultz was a nicer spot to hang, and it...
Man, that's awesome your dog is so sweet! But that looks really uncomfortable! I get annoyed with my little Boston laying on me at times.
Think I'm gonna make it to this one! My job has finally slowed to where I don't need to work weekends. I don't think I'll be bringing any gear to trade, I tend to hold on to my old equipment so I can...
I thought Ottawa lake was open year round. I think the sites go from reservable to self registration/first come once winter hits. There are also the shelters Along the IAT. I checked one of three out...
Hey, just wanted to say "Hi, all". I would be ready to go for any weekend trip for once the weather turns a little colder. My jobs is currently keeping way too busy(Harvest Time)! By november things...
Oh, I see now that I'm on my Mac. It didn't show up on my phone! weird.
I would be in in this! Work should be slowing a little later in the month. So anytime end of October or earl November would be my best shot to go. I'll keep check the post to see what dates at final.
Man, sounds like fun! Might be interested in joining in in this one.
Yes ! beverages , bacon and a massive ax! That's was quite the recipe for fun last year. Would like to make this one again. Might be unable to commit until late. My work schedule can change on a...
I too am out. I am working down in Texas for the next 6-8 week's. Gotta make that money.
Consider me interested! It's a beautiful area! Work will be the decoding factor for me. But throw me in the maybe category . would love to get out. Feeling a bit pent up.
I know the feeling! I eyeballed this one as well. Just been to busy. Hopefully we can setup the spring hang here again. Had a great time last year. We had a fun group.
I will second the Newport Beach State Park. I usually camp there twice a year. You have to pack in, but it's worth it! If site 16 is open take that. It's the best site!
I would be interested in a hang here as we'll! Close to home.
Well I'll say hello from Wisconsin. But I've been working in Lincoln for 2 months now. Wow, you guys take this "Big Red " business seriously! I see "Go Big Red" stenciled all over the facility I'm...
Would like to make this one for sure ! Had a great time last year! Work should be slowing by that point. But have to play it by ear. I vote for the YRSF. It's a beautiful park.
52835 for me the pull outs are great for hunker down mode! They keep you from hitting the tarp when in your hammock. If a big storm blows in, and the rain is coming down sideways, $10 could seem like...
Sticks do work fine! But same as you I was like " I don't need no stupid hiking poles!" then I bought some to take on a Minnesota spring hang that had just dumped a foot of snow. They were a life...
I leave all my lines attached to my Superfly. I figure 8 and tie them off first. And the snake skins have no problems sliding right over all the rigging. And I can still get the whole setup into the...
hmm, tempting!
Subscribed, and will be keeping an eye on this one. Chances are I will be working in Miller S.D. through out the summer. So that would just be a short ride after a work week. Would love to see the...
What a great hang! Nice meeting you all! It was a lot of fun. I'll see you all on the next one.
I'm in St Paul having some lunch should be getting up there around 3:30 or 4:00. The weater in here dosen't seem all to bad at the moment. And looks like we'll have nice day tomorrow!
I'd be willing pick you up on my way if its truly a concern. Might even take the wife's Subaru to have AWD. Hoping they'll get the roads cleared by tomorrow afternoon.
Haha, yea me too! That's why I was asking. Thought I might be the only guy trudging through the snow in my boots. Haven't really got into any deep winter camping yet. This should be good for getting...
hmm, 5-9 inches over the next few days. Is anybody gonna bring snowshoes or a pulk? This is gonna feel more like a winter camping trip. Minus the sub-zero temps. Ahh, spring in the north country!
It's a greenlight for me! Just got the ok to take Friday off. 6hr drive for me. So I'll be ariveing some time in the afternoon. Sounds like it may be a little mucky? Or is there still snow on the...
Ive been compiling new gear all winter. And I am way anxious to try it out! I thinking I might try to make this one.
i vote star lake.
The words "good walleye population" has my ears perked.!
Just wanted to throw this out for a location idea. Lots of water if we have any fisherman or paddlers. And a lot of area for backcountry camping. Just an idea. And a place I've wanted to check out...
If like to make this one! Not sure where I'll be as far as work goes. I work some weekends. If I can make it happen that would be nice. Tumbleweedz I live in Delavan and might be interested in a...
Just got myself a 20* zeppelin. With draft collars and 1oz overstuff. I'm so happy with mine! Your gonna love it. And WOW! Purple! That's gonna be a looker! Definitely have to post some picks. Maybe...
Looks like this.
My 20* 3/4 Zeppelin I got from you 3 or 4 weeks ago was my first UQ. I was a little miffed at first by the secondary suspension. But for me fiddling is half the fun! So It didn't take me long to hook...
The pull is cool. But I'm really jealous of your pup! What a great looking lab!
How about a Wilderness logics Snipe or Owl? I got my self a snipe. I'm 6'3 and I love it! it's long. And the Knotty mods are awesome! Really comfortable flat lay. Here Shug will show you what's...
I've got an ENO setup in my house. When I take a nap in it I just grab a big plush/fleece blanket off the couch and wrap myself in it. That seems to be enough. Keeps me good and warm.
I found some 1.75 spectra dyneema called chuck-it. Its on E-bay. Its $20 shipping included. check it...
I just reread this thread.http://www.hammockforums.net/forum/showthread.php?t=58356
I see what your saying about how the seam sits. I'm still gonna apply another seal. I just like to play it safe....
