I found my Hennessey asym tarp. I can't get out at least, but the thief still my rigging bag. It had my pegs, tree traps and other guy lines. I'll have to make a new set of tree straps.

Howdy, SnideTripid from Edmonton. Looks like I won't be hanging for a bit.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20170301/8d8d4df8d35728431108c0157ef23f29.jpgMy Superfly was stolen from my truck last...

Hello Edmonton area hangers, I haven't been on for a while so just a shout out to see who is still active.
I am planning to get out in the next couple of weeks, if your interested shoot me a pm or...
Night was cool, around 8°c with heavy rain and thunderstorms. Success as my SF kept me dry, and my UQ from Little Shop of Hammocks kept me snug.
Need to do a little tweaking on my ridgeline as I...

I think I will try out the porch mode this weekend. Any advice for pitching a WB SF?

We try, but mostly I just solo. Get a rig together and you will be more than welcome to come out when I go.
Two nights in April, with my son at Miquelon lake provincial park....
We are in A loop, site 55.
I know it is short notice but this is usually how these things come together for me. My son and I will be out at Miquelon Lake this weekend, and if anyone wants to join you are more than welcome.
I bought a mesh bag that I keep my straps in. Nothing fancy, it was in a dollar bin.
I see this thread is pretty much dead, but as for an update on the situation here in Canada, still nothing. Everything I have found ships either overseas, or from the US.
Greetings Swamp. From Edmonton...

Okay, I have been looking over a few of these contraptions now for a few months. I am serious about purchasing a sock, but I want to know if I really need one. I have heard condensation is a big...

I am using the standard Zing It ridgeline with Flies. For the guyouts, I spliced about six feet of Lash It...
I used a tarp from the hardware store for the first year of hanging. Nothing wrong with it, although it did start to fade after a while. The nice thing is, they are cheap. So if it wears out, you...
Wish I could do this with you, but that much time off would kill me. Maybe next time.
Excellent build on my LSH winter UQ in multicam. Firesong even sent a stuff sack, mesh storage bag, some loop aliens, couple of s biners, and a Cryptex balaclava. I am going to toy with the loop...
Guess I won't be back in time for a march hang, but I brought my gear to Lethbridge so solo is a possibility.
Thank you guys.

Nice HangingKayaker. Drone footage looks terrific. Glad you guys had fun, I'll pm you my contact info so we can maybe set up a hang in March. " the snides of march"
First night under my belt now, great weekend to be out and about. Was not very cold, -12°c was the lowest.http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20160131/5d463a0a77dd89cdfee9c141457e8d29.jpg
Okay, plans have changed. Seems that the awesome sites at the end of loop a are closed for the season, and I did not bring my sled. I will be camped out in site 137.
Haha. Ya, it would have been for you. I was snug.
Generously had some firewood donated to me today from a few removals, birch and spruce. Should be a good hot one.
Will have a nice fire ready for your arrival.
Just finished a system for tying out the pullouts, in case I would like more stability. Now, time to test.
Wish I had some Stingers!!!
Think I'm sold on this in Multicam.
Sadly, it will have to wait.
Greetings from Edmonton. Get out and have fun.

Thanks for the video, I too have experimented with all sorts of ways to hang my SF. From using the prussic clips that...
Ya, mm53bar. What's your quilt rated for anyway? I don't expect it to be too cold, this weekend is supposed to be around 0°.
This time last year I was out there with my 0° UQ, 0° mummy, and a wool...
Great setup, nice Superfly with pole mod!! The weather up here in Alberta Canada has also been quite unseasonal, anywhere from +2°c down to -30°c the other day, it is usually -30 and below. By...
For sure M. Too bad I won't have my new UQ, I would borrow you one. We have to get out this summer. I have a canoe now, so paddling is a definite option.
I am happy to say that my UQ has returned to it's lofty heights. Thanks for all the wise advice.
