man.. i need to log in to HF more frequently. I'll probably make it out Saturday evening to hang for a bit, but won't be able to camp (I work that weekend).
Wow.. I came here looking for an update on Stormcrow's trek and instead found sad news. I'm very sorry for the loss and hope that you are all okay.
wow - this is an innovative design. The video really helps me make sense of the hammock and its suspension system and it looks pretty well thought-out.. Very impressive creation!
Wow! That weight is really impressive - and a great story behind it to boot! Some photos of the hammock in the Darien Gap would be awesome to see.
I'm not big on camo, but I'd love to see one made...
I started with an ENO DryFly, because I hadn't found this forum yet and only knew that I wanted to get up off the ground. It didn't provide great coverage, was tough to pitch, and it weighed a lot...
Welcome, from Portland, OR! I've been up around Rainier a few times in the past month - you have some truly beautiful scenery in your neck of the woods.

Do you have the weight on this?
The Singer is awesome! Thanks, Chris!
Someone will be extremely happy with the Mitsubishi - that thing is a beast!
I love the stuff.. aside from the weird rantings on the label. At home, I use the almond scent (smells like Disaronno!) as soap/shampoo. In the piney woods, its peppermint or unscented and becomes...
I'll take the 503a, but I'll pass on the serger and materials. I wish I had space for the Mitsubishi, or I'd take that too!
Sending a PM on the 503A, serger, and all materials
Is the GorillaPod the Original model or will it hold a DSLR?

This be sold, pending funds, to Inphenity

back and still nothin' eh? Any offers?
thanks for the free bumps! I'll be backpacking for the next few days, but will reply to any posts when I return!
oh sweet - I didn't know that! Thanks for the bump, too - pack is still available
Welcome from Portland, Oregon! My mom lives in Bedford, Pennsylvania and my sister in Indiana, PA. I hiked quite a lot in PA while I was in college - beautiful part of the world!
Size Medium torso and Medium hipbelt. Please see disclaimer below!
This pack has served me well! It is in great shape, even after many nights in the backcountry. There are a few dirty spots and a...
to Fronkey!
pm sent.. super interested, pending response!
thanks for the tip, rip! I think I'll do just that..
speaking of the cascades, this trip is actually a fallback plan - we were supposed to climb Adams, but that fell through at the last minute
welcome, from Portland!
I'm planning a backpacking trip in Mill Creek Wilderness, starting & finishing at South Twin Pillars Trailhead. I know the area was burned out pretty seriously a few years back, and I've never been...
MAN! How did I miss these???
Boy do I wish I could join in this.. I'd love to organize a similar get-together on the West Coast, once I've grown familiar with the PNW
Consolation to myself: June 16th I'll be summiting Mt....
On a recent trip, my 'new-to-hanging' friend forgot his webbing straps. Going to ground on the snowpack wasn't an option, so we had to improvise. He uses paracord for his bear bag line, but since I...
i hiked the 18 mile Tanner Butte trail in the Columbia Gorge and then ran a few miles. not what I'd planned, but still a great time!
i'm heading out tomorrow for an overnighter in the Gorge.. if that happens to work for anyone, you're welcome to join!
1-Weight - obsessively.
2-Functionality/Versatility - this ties into weight. Functionally, I want the lightest possible manifestation of something that performs the most NECESSARY functions. ...
dibs.. i'll take it.
torso size is a bit small for me.. I sure would love to drool over some pics though!
I didn't mean to imply that I believed my thread had been closed because it was a slam. Thanks to everyone for your kind words and support!
The tarp I ordered has panel pulls on one side, and...
proof, you shall receive!

welcome, from Portland!
I just wanted to follow up on my previous post regarding my ongoing experience with HammockGear. Apparently the thread was closed, but mods - feel free to add this to the thread to bring closure to...
interested! what is the weight on this puppy?
Thanks for your input, Gustav! I guess I figured it made considerably more sense to simply wait than to continually pester Adam & Jen. My assumption was that, since the tarp COULD be made and...
Thanks, taylo - I appreciate Officer Cartman policing my thread! :cool:
And I appreciate all of the responses (even the negative ones!) just like current/potential customers appreciate hearing...
I'd like to preface this with a disclaimer: Writing this does not come easily. I have been a customer on two previous occasions, and this is the first negative experience that I've had with Hammock...
welcome from Portland, OR!
The HotSpot is ENO's version of an SPE. DIY is your least expensive option, and I doubt there are any other commercial versions of the SPE. Personally, I'd just duct-tape CCF wings to an existing...
I use a 20* Burrow for temps ranging from single digits up to around 45*. Above that, I find that I really don't need much top insulation if I'm using an adequate UQ. If I'm looking at projected...
Try DIYgearsupply.com - I get all of my DIY stuff from there.
Good luck, can't wait to see pictures!
I agree - this leaves a bad taste in my mouth. I wouldn't have purchased the bag anyway, but now I am simply disgusted rather than disinterested.
welcome from Portland, Oregon! I spent a night in your city this past summer - seems like a great town.. hope to see some pics of that HMG tarp soon!
I'll throw my name in to this hat, tentatively. Subscribed to this thread and will gladly volunteer to help out in any way possible (though from Portland).
