Having a chin scratch there is a Euro hang being planned next spring, Poland and Belgium have been bantered around a bit sounds like a good one to consider...
Hmmm.... sounds good maybe some of us thinking of a south UK hang could join you? I am liking the sounds of spring in Belgium though, would love to say I am in but at the moment I have big exams to...
:boggle::lol:
I am quite jealous, sounds like you had fun though :)
It's ok smarticle nobody's perfect :lol:
Hello and welcome, trust me you will start cheap but soon they will convince you to spend hundreds on your kit, run while you still have your wallet!...
eek! :scared: like everyone said at least it was during the day, now I will make an effort to check my fellow hangers trees as well as my own!
Nice looks like you guys had a good fun trip, every report i see makes my feet tingle and I have laid all my gear out on the spare bed, now i just need a UQ and somewhere to go!
Yeah as above if its a short journey a big bluey should be sufficient but a few weeks ago me and a friend created an are to sit in with two regular tarps combined.
Hey LJDellar
As Dunk said there are a few of us here in the UK, and I don't think I've encountered you yet Dunk so this is a hello to you both, and also an invitation to a possible New...

Ok this has probably been done to death before but I really cannot get my head around these whoopie slings everyone is raving about. Could someone please explain to a very slow newbie and clear this...
17,500ft I think, the altitude was quite tough, everything just gets you out of breath.
Mine is me sat at the top of Gokyo Ri, in the Saggamartha National Park Nepal, with Mt. Everest in the background.

Hey, I found these the other day for 2mm cord but they are advertised as 0-2mm.
Micro LineLoc
Hope this helps.
Received my snake skins earlier this week, well worth the price! Put the hammock up down the hall, using a clever door handle hitch. Got it on nice and easy, very swish and made putting the hammock...
Haha this is an awesome idea, when I ever go out on my own I might take someone with me now!
Looks like you guys had fun, wish we had places like that round here!
But you see some minds can be shaped like putty others are like concrete.
*Cough* It's hammockforums.net *cough*
Just a thought, does anybody else try to find the most complex way possible to hang hammocks and tarps when there are two or more of you? Attached are some photos of me and a friend, they still dont...
So far it has been with cub scouts and a friend can imagine there would be something very relaxing about being out in the wild alone though?
Not sure what the postage across the pond would be bur DD hammocks do a nice £29 tarp which is plenty big enough!
Not per se as I split the seam down one side accidentally whilst I was in in a tent in the Himalayas which turned out to be a useful modification when applied to the hammock.
I personally have a DD silk liner, which i bought on ebay for next to nothing. It has a definite noticeable difference, for example the night I got my frostbite it was a very pleasant sleep the...
OOH! Where do you get one of those flags!
Nope all good here, what browser you on, I got latest version of chrome?
:drool: Oh boy do I need to find a job soon!! It may take some time till I can get me one of these!
I would hang the tarp, 'cos rain can come over quite quickly (well here at least) and yeah I think if you pitch the sides nice and steep you will get some heat trapped and definitely keep out the...
You my good sirs are all genii!! And Rae-Rae I'm loving the pink duct tape! I think a photo of it is in order!
Hello there and welcome!
Can't says I had thought about that but it sounds like you have created a system very similar to eno's slap straps? Or a daisy chain if you would prefer?
Would be...
A few very basic things about under quilts:
What makes a good one? Why so expensive? Do they come cheap? How cheap / difficult are they to make?
Being only a fair weather hanger i have no...
Gah that all looks so good! I wish I lived somewhere better!
Welcome! This sounds very much like how I started last weekend, after getting frostbite two weeks before I decided to give it a go, got an advance on Christmas presents and went away for a weekend...
Hey Guys
Don't know how many people there actually are on here from the UK, but I thought it would be good fun if it isn't already in place to start an annual hangout? As I said before I was...
Newbie!
Hey all,
I am a 16 year old hiker from just outside London, UK. I have done Everest Base Camp and am doing silver DofE for those that know what it is, though currently I am nursing a case of third...
