Why not a 1.1 single? Is the material too light to hold a 190 lb body? How about M50? Any custom possibilities with either of these two options?

I also enjoy top quality, lightweight, low bulk gear.
I just bought a 40 degree under quilt and top quilt from HammockGear.com Love their stuff. Adam devised a new suspension system that is great....
All good ideas, thanks guys! Guess it really doesn't matter what you put there, just wondering what the experts did.
Solo trips are great! I love my family and all, but man is it work taking them on trips. Solo, you have one meal to cook, one rig to set up and nobody to disturb the peaceful serenity of the...
I love it. By the way, thank you Bannerstone for making me so damned curious about your awesome set-up I just had to figure out how you did it. I'm hooked on Locked Brummels and line splices. Coolest...
pgibson, I just made three sets of whoopies for my family. I was wondering if that could be a problem. I understand if what you are talking about is top secret, etc... but if not could you point me...
Wow! This is me being very jealous, sounds like a great trip! Hope all goes well and being able to enjoy it in a hammock, well, even that much better. Hope you get the right info sir. Have a good one!
I really want to get up to Mohican and see what it has to offer. I used to be a mountain biker myself. Would be nice to shake off a little rust from the ol' Trek 930. My ROCKSHOX probably do not have...
I took the original down due to copyright stuff. I put up another with copyright free music and it still gets blocked, ugh! Well here is the new video.

Wonderful report! Those HammockGear folks are great. I'm sure the others are fine as well, just haven't met them. Read so much about trail days, soon I'll get a chance to attend. Glad you had a great...
I agree, guess these things do happen. I'm glad he's ok and that I read this thread to increase my awareness of the potential hazards of the woods.
On a lighter note, I'm glad to hear he didn't...
Welcome to hammock forums!
Tendertoe, that sucks. Hope everyone finds peace someway, somehow.
Weird transition I know, but on a lighter note, the Zaleski Loop made it into the latest Backpacker Magazine.

Next two weekends are booked for me. :(
That is a rig full of ingenuity! Did you guys catch any fish?
Better late than never. Hope y'all don't mind me waisting 13 minutes of your life. I'm sure you all have seen WV's cuban fiber hammock already, but have you seen his stove and stand? I very much...

I want one also. Thank u!
I'm in for Friday Camp C.
If I can coax a certain hammocker to bring along his phoenix again my boy will be able to join us as well. Weather will be a bit more seasonal, this weekend. The wally...
Very nice video! Glad you could get out. I too have a wonderful understanding wife, aren't they great!
Thank you for all the advice! The dinner was very good and I will be trying more of these. I was expecting mushy noodles etc... but they were crisp. Pleasantly surprised.
I'm gonna try David. My boy has a state gymnastics meet. If he competes later Sat or on Sunday I will be there Friday night. We're going to get out a lot this year between all the chaos.
Thank you...
This was only my second night in the woods sleeping in a hammock. This is my first attempt at a video. Hope you enjoy!

We're all ate up! 6.7 oz of pure joy!
I use the HG Incubator on my WBBB. The foot box deal was an issue initially, but solved quickly, works out great.
Sitting here wishing I had one... :) nice UQ Slo!
I'm not an expert. But, my philosophy is whatever you spend on the cheaper stuff, you could have saved and used to get the quality product. But, if you get the cheaper stuff and eventually get the...

I'll tell you what, I bought my son a blue pad from wally world and could not believe how warm it was. Your shoulders will get cold but there are some fixes for that. Shug talks about it his vids for...
Welcome from a Buckeye! Wish I would've checked out Hammock Forums before I had a rig, would've saved me some cash.

Welcome to Hammock Forums!
I will make a hang soon, but it won't be this one. My boy has a state meet the last weekend in March. I'll be planning on the late April hang.
My God Man! Gives me more courage to get out there no matter the conditions.
ok, dropped the big bucks on the Cuben, waited patiently for the tree to tree "No Tangle" guy line. Now, how long do you recommend I make the lines? I have 100' of line.
Thank you so much for any...
Just read Dutch's thru hike, I could not stop reading it. I laughed out loud routinely. The rant about New England yuppies... Barking Spiders with the eco-system sustained with methane... I love it!...
yeah, weird, I just saw they are in Lancaster.
I'm the new guy from Lancaster Bannerstone mentioned. Can't wait to get out in the woods and meet you all!
I know they usually have water available just prior to camp site C. Will they provide...
Thank you Bannerstone, I may need to borrow an UQ.
My son is 9. He's excited to get out.
