Hi I am planning on a camping trip with my friends. They live in Washington DC and I live in upstate NY. We were thinking Pennsylvania was a good midpoint. I have never camped in Pennsylvania. So I...

Sorry late to the party. Any word on if this is happening? I am interested

what are their weights separately?

I was told 3-4 weeks on quilts now. I bet they are booked with all the Econ quilts being ordered. Its such a good deal. I have to keep telling myself that I don't NEED a quilt for every temp rating....

I have one of these. I got it for $25. Well worth it for a cheap blanket/quilt. Its a bit heavy at 1 lb 14oz. But I like having it to have in case one of my friends needs to borrow a quilt. Its rated...

Wow that is really bold. I like it!

So I'm about to order my underquilt, and I can't decide on a color combination. The pictures I usually see online are stealthy like greens, browns, and balck. But I was thinking something with a bit...

Fund received. Item is now SOLD. closing...

Thanks Paul! This is the exact information I was hoping to get!

Here are some pictures:
I took some with flash and some without so you can see how it looks in different light

Of course depending on your monitor settings, the colors...

I really do appreciate the pictures. I've been reading a lot of threads and when you posts pictures like that, I just want to run home and get in my hammock.

As for temperature, granted its been...

I know there has been a couple of posts that asked people to compare tarps. And most of what I read have read have been about what people like better. It sounds like there are fans on both sides and...

Wilderness Logics Underquilt 3/4 Length
I just got it last Thursday

44" x 55"
900 Fill power Goose down
Burnt orange outside
WL Gray inside

$170 shipped. I will usually ship within 24 hours.

Yeah I'm pretty sure that I am doing something wrong since I think a 3/4 length should work for me too. But since I am so new at this and since I don't know anybody else around me who knows what they...

That is really good to know. I'm actually 4 inches shorter than you, so its good to know that the short incubator will be more than enough for me.

Cool! So that goes past your head to past your feet? how much extra room do you have beyond the top of your head to the bottom of your feet?

Ahh that was sort of the information I was looking for. I like the shoulder to your feet + 4".

Thanks for the pics! I really enjoy when you post pics like that. It really makes me want to go out and hammock camp!

Unfortunately for me, I can only afford one quilt for now. So I think I may...

I didnt mean to make it sound like I thought the vendors were steering me wrong. I don't think that at all. And in all my communications with any of the cottage vendors here, they have been nothing...

Thanks for the replies.

So it sounds like a full length quilt is easier since you dont have to worry about where it is in relation to your body?

Since I am a beginner at this whole hammocking...

Have fun on your trip! I used to think that people who brought chairs backpacking were just carrying extra weight. I just use a sit pad or a tarp on the ground, but there are definitely times when I...

I have been researching underquilt setups but I still haven't fount what I was looking for exactly.

I know that the top part of the underquilt should be right above your shoulders. And that you...

I just want to say again how much I enjoy your articles. I have been reading your posts for the past few days. And this is another well written one. It's really funny how you mentioned you missed...

Welcome from central NY

Thanks. I actually tried that out and its better at the back of my calves. Except I think when I move it past my shoulders, I get a gap on the top part depending on how I position my head.

I...

Thanks! So I shouldn't feel the cinch cord at all?

Aha! That's what I was doing wrong. I thought the cords that cinch were supposed to lift the hammock. I made it so that the primary suspension (the cord that I can move the UQ back and forth on) was...

thanks for the replies. How tight should the suspension be? I thought it was supposed to lift the hammock when you are not sitting in it? If I make it loose enough to be comfortable, it doesn't lift...

I am having a problem with my under quilt. My Wilderness Logics 3/4 Length quilt is pretty awesome.

But when I tried it on my hammock for the first time yesterday and when I was laying in it (I...

Wow. I didnt even know about 2QZQ. They have some really nice stuff!



Haha. I bet it feels really homey and cozy! Do you have the ENO twinklelights on your ridgeline too?

Thanks Paul! I was actually just looking at your ridgeline organizers this morning!

I wish I could sew and I would make my own.

What is a peak bag?

I never thought I would like camo, but that looks pretty great!

I think for me it really depends on the novel. There's been some novels that I end up staying up all night reading because I really want to figure out what happens next. Mysteries for me are the...

The red light is such a great idea. I may have to do that next time.

I got my structural ridgeline as part of the hammock from Dutch. I think its amsteel.

Welcome. I'm new here too.

I was in your position once. I was researching and researching. There are so many great hammocks and tarps and suspensions and everything else out there. I was so...

What organizer do you use? I've been looking for one to get.

Just curious about what people hang on their ridgelines. Is your ridgeline structural or just for hanging stuff? Can you even hang stuff on a structural ridgeline, or will that mess with the...

wow. good finds!

which kickstarters did you order from?

That's still pretty nice. And it doesn't even look like its rolled up as tight as it could be.

I've used this pad in my hammock:
134063

It's a Nemo Cosmo Air. I think because of how the baffles were situated (horizontal vs vertical), it actually fit my hammock pretty well. I originally had...

I'm so jealous right now. I really want to get a zeppelin from UGQ too.

wow. thats tiny. Does that include the suspension?

So true. I am in New York state and most of the time when I order from Dutch, I get it in about 3 days!

Cool! let us know how it works out for you

I thought the title was an Austin Powers reference. oops.

Welcome!

That is such great reading. Thanks for sharing this! I really enjoy reading the two prespectives

I am about to pull the trigger on my new topquilt! I was able to sell my ENO Ignitor top quilt for how much I got it for. So now I have money to buy a new topquilt!

I am going to buy 20* Flight...

That makes sense with the camo. Mine was a single color.



Yeah. I've actually weighed every single thing I had in my pack (mostly out of curiosity) and was surprised by how much some of the...
