Thanks for the info. That's a great idea.

I'm looking for skins for my 4S tarp. Is anyone selling them specifically for this tarp or should I just contact Storm Crow??

Is it recommended even recommended to use skins?

If so, is there...

I've decided to try the Fronkey DIY net. Wish me luck!!!

I need a low cost solution for a bug net to fit my Traveler. If I spend any more significant money on gear I will be sleeping outdoors, permanently, if wife has anything to say about it!

and I...

Thanks to everyone for the reponses. It gives me a good piece of mind knowing it will hold the 1.75 Zing-it. I think that 2nd wrap around is good advice just for reassurances.

I'll take it. Pm on the way.

Will the small Nite Ize Figure 9 work with Zing-It?

Holy Pork Hockery...Hickery Bros. Hockery...Shug, that scene had me rolling. :laugh: :laugh:

MORE! I can't get enough of the Linville Saga! Since my back surgery has kept me from the woods, these vids make me feel like I'm out there! Thanks Shug!

Shug, Great to see another Hickery Bros Linville Gorge trip vid! Glad to hear the plantar didn't stop ya from going. When can we expect the remaining footage? You've got us all on the edge of our...

I like the black flag as a background color...looks sharp!

Thanks Demostix, I thought I was missing something. I think I will go with Zing-it with prussiks for guy lines. I like the idea of being able to make tarp adjustments while staying under the tarp on...

I searched for uses as guy lines and couldnt find anything. How is it being attached to D rings and stakes?

Grizz did a video review of it here...

Can you splice it like regular dyneema...maybe a fixed eye, etc?

How about a Quadfecta!

4 Season Cuben Fiber tarp with tie outs!!!!

It is with great regret that I cannot make this trip after all. I had back surgery in february and I continue to have problems. It is very frustrating.
Please remove my name as a possible.

That's a mighty cool set-up ya got! Thanks for sharing!

Sounds like a stepping stone to greater opportunities!

Looks like a sweet hang. I'm following this thread for sure!

Look forward to seeing the site!

If it's just gear in general, I have to +1 Hawk-eye's response.

I guess I made an assumption that it was regarding hammocks since that is what Kammock is selling and that comfort doesnt really...

I'm kind of surprised by the polling results. I would think comfort would have a higher rating. If I had a hammock that was not comfortable...then I certainly would not use it.

Welcome from CT!

Regarding the ULA Circuit: what was your total pack weight for this trip?

Thanks for the vid. It has cheered me up on a down day. Keep on hangin, pickin', throwin' and funin'!

3 pack Nite Ize at Bargainoutfitters = 4.97/ea. w/shipping came to $10.56

Its backordered until 4/18 but still a good value!

Sooooo, when can I get one?? :laugh:

Grizz, that's the ultimate system! I just hope my DIY skills improve drastically!

Thanks for sharing a fantastic wilderness sleeping system!

What is the color of GT UL and does it come w/suspension?

I just wanted to give DivaB's post a bump....I too would like to see this info.

Thanks to all replies! Definitely helps!

What's optimum needle size for use with ripstop 1.1 ...for hammock construction?

Welcome to HF.net from Conn.

Thanks. I actually have some that i use under me while winter camping. I thought by taping the edges it might prolong it's life :)

trailblazer007 - maybe :)

Do you tape the edges of reflectix? If so, what tape?

The sales/repair shop person was no help. The guy thought it was a german machine. I know for a fact that it is a company from Japan that started selling in the U.S. in the early 60's. That's all I...

Ha! Love the analogy!

I will seam seal it myself and if need be reenforce the tie outs. I already have the material so it's just time for me but I can see if someone doesn't want to deal the...

Has anyone received the 16 X 16 tarp yet? I"m curious to see what the actual dimensions are. :eek:

Very nice mod. What was your total mod cost?

I'm also eager to see results of the rain test. I'm hearing conflicting reports about the factory "taped seams".

Wow. They had 700 units at about 6pm yesterday...they're moving fast.

I must say I am GREEN with envy! Sounds like a fantastic trip! Thanks for sharing!

I see. Are there any instructional threads on this?

is this an alternative to deet?
