Can't believe they think they have the right to sue...
You ROCK Dejoha!
I just looked at NOAA forecast for this weekend and they're saying possible rain/snow showers Friday. Is this event happening regardless of any type of weather? If it's raining it could make things...
That's kind of the obvious solution--especially for home use like I did last night. But, for backpacking most of us want to utilize our gear as much as possible and save weight/space so this is a...
Yep.....that's the one--in the link/photo.
I did let the water stop boiling but it was pretty hot when I poured it in.
I tightened it pretty good but not enough to 'crack' it or damage...
I left the water level a good two inches below from the full mark.
yep, trust me....I made sure it was tight before tossing it in my bed. was shocked when I felt the water!
doesn't all the extra bagging take away from getting heat?
I got thirds if the other two deals fail!
Ok....so I've used the hot water bottle in my hammock once and it worked nicely. So I figured....why not try it at home in bed? I always kick off the furnace at night cause I like to sleep with the...
Yep! That would be the one! Nice job Jeff! Are you gonna bring it to the winter hang?
Would love to see it...
Yep.....something like that but was envisioning it more full length with the edges being seamless all around. Almost like taking a UQ and making it a hammock in and of itself.
I'm probably either talking about something someone already thought of or giving away an idea I should patent but.....
has anyone thought of making a hammock with a UQ already built into it? Do...
Great idea! never thought of that! :)
Fried Spam is awesome! Even goes good with mac 'n cheese!
Do they sell quilts or are you talking about sleeping bags?
LOL!! That was too funny
I mountain bike Rampart a lot--it's a great spot for a winter hang!
Is this a two-nighter for sure? Friday night is a buddies birthday party but hope to make it SAT. nite if ya'll are still...
I got one of the new models with doors built in. Love them! You can't go wrong IMHO
cause you can very easily fold them back out of the way but when--not if--you need them, all you gotta do is pull...
Sad news story I just read. Be careful out there...

I don't get why hammocks can't be as "low and stealthy" as a tent or bivvy. Just hang it low to the ground. Just sayin'......
Hey,
Please let me know how your bag works in the hammock. I recently got a BB and have the exact same bag but the bag has let me down the last few times camping. (tent with a pad) I froze and...
HAHAHAHA!!!
As a newbie I just happened to wonder what ya'll do when your hammock get's all grimy and smelly after many many uses? can't really throw it in the washing machine right? so how do you clean a dirty...
Just curious Jeff.....
Do you favor a bag or a UQ most of the time?

just smooshed it back into the stuff sack. it's exactly 12 inches from top to bottom of stuff sack standing but super light! : )
will get back to you on that. been too busy with work to play with it yet!
Why limit ourselves to only ONE winter hang? We could do one with car camping and arrange another date for trail camping. We live in an amazing state--let's do it all! :D
Haven't had time to read thru all these posts but my two suggestions would be...
A. near Monument CO--up over Mt. Herman road? Great views and some hidden canyons I mountain bike on. Breakfast when...
I SECOND THAT! : )
Yep! Those are them! They work great! Get 'em while they're hot!
Got home from work today and my brand spankin' new 3 season Incubator was waitin' for me!!
I feel like a kid at Christmas! Too late to set it up but wrapped it around me and immediately...
Ooops! Didn't see that one!
Already set it up--and took it down. Too windy!! : )
Geez. Didn't realize you had to post a photo for EVERYTHING!! ; )
Trust me on this one....he makes great skins. I'm stoked to go hammocking soon!
was that here in CO? no barrier--just hammock?
Just wanted to say Brad made me some awesome no-see-um skins for my tarp and they are awesome! Makes things sooo much easier and the little pockets on each end are genius. I highly recommend getting...
Would it be possible to plan around a full moon? It's great being out on the woods at night on a full moon with the moon lighting everything up! : )
A UQ sounds great but probably for some protective netting (removed for photo) in case the little dude falls out.
Interesting thought browny....
I wouldn't sleep in an "unsheltered" hammock for a million bucks there. snakes dwell in trees!! It actually kinda freaks me out thinking about one slithering in my hammock with me while I'm...
Hey medicjimr,
I'm from Murrysville! I live in CO now but my family are all still back there. Been to Kittanning many times and love to fish Pine Creek. : )
This newbie is definitely IN! : )
great stuff!!
were the holes punched completely through or partially? got photos?
Thanks for your vote TBone! : )
I think I want one. Especially if it comes with one of those hot ladies! ; )
How low can you get with reflextix type material?
Very helpful and insightful comments! Thanks
everyone!
Just curious....
In warmer temps--like summer--what's the coldest you can sleep at without a UQ? Including using a piece of reflectix or some comparable material.
I'm just thinking...
