I pack night before. Fluff the down when I sat up camp.

Has anyone solved this issue with the Quilt Hooks? http://youtu.be/jLQlAFX7V3E

1.7 it will be then.

Thanks

I use a ZingIt CRL with a Dutchhook on one side and a Dutch Fly on the other. The tarp is attached with prusiks so that it can be moved along the line.

I've decided that my next hammock is going to be a Blackbird, but I need to decide between the 1.1 double or 1.7 single. I'm 5'8 and 175-180 lbs. The double would allow for a pad, but I will be...

People will wait for quality. Be well.

I kept the bag attached to store my glasses in at night.

I made changes to my bottom entry in the following order:
-continuous ridge line so that I could set up the tarp before the hammock in the rain
-replace the stock suspension with whoopies for...

Love his Ti Stakes!

Very nice!

It looks good! It took me three days, a full yard of fabric, and several interventions on the part of my wife before I finished my first bishop bag. This hobby is the most entertaining source of...

Thank you.

My order to close to two months for the order date to the delivery. He made it up to me, and the quality is as good as everyone claimed. I have learned to order from the cottage folks when I can...

I used the standard lashing for five years with no problems, but using the slings makes setting up easier. Centering the hammock was always a guessing game and now I don't have to retie anything......

I am not worried about snakes, but I always use a bugnet. We have bugs year round in VA.

Interested. PM sent.

What type of thread do y'all use when working with ripstop nylon?

I got hit by seagulls yesterday. There must be a conspiracy.

My wife swears by her DN. Sleeping in that hammock is what lures her out camping with me.

I tend to camp in the backcountry and along the AT near the shelters. I step behind the shelter if there are conservative folk around. Otherwise I change quickly wherever my setup is. I'm not...

Dirty and wet stuff is hung over the ridgeline. Anything with a scent goes in the bear bag. That leaves an empty pack in a plastic bag under the hammock on the ground.

Dang! Too slow!

PM sent about the JRB top quilt.

I used floral wire and it worked great.

I actually like the guy line cordage that came with the tarp . I'd like to know what type it is so that I can use some on my OES.

What type of cordage is used for the stock Hennessy UL Explorer tarp guy lines?

Thanks folks. I love this forum!

Richmond VA!

Keep it cheap. First class works just fine.

I've been waiting 63 days and counting. I've been told the results will be worth the wait many times. I trust that Brain will prove everyone right.

I was in the same disappointing boat.

I slept on the ground for two decades and enjoyed every bit of it. I learned very quickly that this would no longer work on backpacking trips after having rotator cuff surgery. I began a search for...

I've been using my HH UL Explorer for four years with the stock tarp and a CRL. I've always slept dry, albeit drafty at times. This past weekend, in the Three Ridges Wilderness Area, the seam tape...

I ordered the Hook, Flyz, and some ZingIt on Saturday, and everything was delivered on Wednesday. This wonderful video helped me permanently attached the Hook.

The craftsmanship and design that peak bag looks great. I might have a new project for my wife the next time she is feeling crafty. ;)

Looks like a wonderful spot. Is there a time frame for this event?

The campgrounds at Frisco NP forbid using the trees to hang and they are very picky about it. I've camped (on the ground) there every summer for several years and the mosquitoes can get pretty bad...
