Did you ever try this with your trekking poles? Would be good to know how much pressure is applied to them.

Fronkey bug net as well for most of mine. I go even cheaper and get the tulle fabric @1.33/yrd at Joann's. All my bug nets are under 2oz. We don't have no seeums here in Utah, so the slightly...
You are an inspiration to all of us that have daughters!
Heading to Joann's shortly ;)

I think the syl with a large glad garbage bag will work well and def in my budget.
I thought of a whoopee cushion as well!
That would be my same question.
Ya, we do have LOTs of awesome vendors for sure. Great suggestion. I was just looking at the zPacks dry bags. I wonder if the seams would hold our body weight all night long. I wonder if the...
I always forgo the stuff sack on my UQ/TQ. I actually just use the pack to do the job, Things fit a lot better this way vs the "bowling balls" you create with the stuff sacks.
So I guess we just need to find us some good lightweight dry bags. Seems like the larger the better. Any good links? I really like the idea as I am in sometimes in areas in So Utah with no trees...
How wet are you under your suit? Are you not getting drenched in that suit? I am very intrigued. Please give more details.
Ya, way cool.
Do you think you could almost just store it pre set up? Just pack it all up in a back so it is quick setup?
You will love it!
Also know where you are going. Humidity is different depending where you are. AZ tends to be more dry. So I am not saying condensation is not a problem, but less so for you vs someone from the...
Hanging with scouts is the best!
Nice pics. I'm jealous!
Awesome trip!
Hope to make it back this year!
Awesome Vid!
Agreed. PMs would be great way to get the word out. Otherwise we are relying on folks to be proactive.
Yes please!
HUGE shout out to HG! I know they are busy and still treat everyone like they are their only customer. I needed my TQ a bit sooner than they should have been able to deliver and they still came...
I just ordered mine too! Can't wait!
Red outside and Black inside.
<Huge Utah Utes fan :boggle:
any cold spots on any of the nights?
Just gonna echo what Spoolup said.
Lake Blanche (and hike) is awesome!
Trip report plz?
I was unable to make it and I am interested to see how this went.
Bump.
I am wondering the same thing. Is Impetus 1.2 tarp worthy?
Thanks!
love trip reports, makes me want to get out more.
this is 1.9 ripstop
This is prolly 350+ pounds on it no problem. The trees we under more strain.

or a car alarm.

good times...but if you don't want to haul all that stuff next time, ask me ;)
+1 to what has been said already. AF Canyon is nice. You only have to pay if you get out of the car though technically. Provo Canyon is just as nice and you don't have to pay. The falls are a...

The friendliness and the maturity of this forum makes it feel like good friends and family. I know that if I ask noob question, I won't be shunned and will get the opposite response. Folks...
Can't wait till my son us a bit older to go hanging. Brings back the memories of my dad and I.
Pics or specs?
Do you have a sleeping bag? You will be amazed at how much heat will escape from underneath you. Convection. Pads work to get rid of that, but are not comfy. Do a search for summer Under Quilts...
Coated (silnylon) is only used for surfaces that need water-proofing. Tarps and stuff sacks are an example. Your hammock should be breathable so just use 1.1-1.9 ripstop uncoated.
The lighter...

We are all beasts of habit...and comfort.

Try making a gathered end hammock before you do anything else out of a bed sheet or ripstop from a local vendor...just so you get the basic idea and see what you like. One thing I learned fast...
Eagle scout...but I seem to forget what I don't use often. I use the interwebs for my refreshers. Now days, If I hear/see a knot that looks useful, I google it, then practice it till I know it.
Welcome. Test lots and often! It's what makes this sooo fun.
the simplicity is what draws me.
What are the dimensions on this?
Welcome!
Glad you could join us in the chats. Keep the tests going, it's what makes this so fun.
The hammock I made for my son is 10.5' and he is roughly 40" tall. The hammock is 60" wide. I put him to bed and set him at an angle, maybe 40 deg. When I check on him during the night and morning,...
O.o
Great work!
Now go finish that book.
Best part of the day ...I got home from my fishing trip from this morning (early) and my WBBB 1.0 was in the mail. Ya, I set it up and promptly took a nap for 3 hours. Was soooooo nice. It's...
Welcome!
I'm new too, you will love it here. So many great ideas and great folks to share it.
Footbox fo sho!
Though the shelf is nice...I think this may move up the list since I JUST got mine today.
Took a nap in it and didn't want to get up...
will a new batch be made?
if not we now have collectors editions :shades:
um, good question. I did order mine on Monday and was shipped today.
Anyone have any additional info on the BB 1.0 gone missing? I do know they are made overseas. This might have something to...
My longer camps are in the Uintas. I really like the Grandaddy Basin. This weekend I'll be at Strawberry doing some fishing.
I'm in Eagle Mountain.
Glad there are so many friendly folks on...
