Today I switched the head to the opposite side. This works better to get the right lay for me and puts the ridge line at a good tension. The angle of the stand looks off but that is an optical...

No line other than the one out the back to a large screw stake. The same stakes the Tensa4 comes with. I do have a strap from one leg to the other so I keep them the same distance ever setup....

Yeah, the two times the stake came out of the ground, I had the bi-pod more upright. It seemed to be pulling more upward on the stake. I then angled the stand more like what I think the Tensa4 has.

After several butt busters I got the angle right here. Prior to getting it right it would pull the large screw stake out of the ground. This stand angle puts less pressure on the stake side, so it's...

Hey guys, looks like I will not be able to make it this year after all. Had some stuff come up that I need to take care of. May the weather gods of the north be with you.

See you at the next one....

The last time I tried to attend, the ranger told me I could not enter the park due to weather. He said you guys all left and some went to Hot Springs. This was during that crazy winter "blizzard" a...

Marlinspike and toggle since the beginning of my hammock days. It works and I’m to lazy to try something else. If it ain’t broke...

It was a great time for sure! I'll ping you Maztrain.

Anyone else going to be there on Thursday? From what I have read the camp area is just a short hike in from the Hawksbill parking area? Also, does the area on the map that I circled in red look like...

I will be there Thursday - Saturday with my son. Looking forward to seeing everyone!

I'm interested in the spreadsheet. Will be heading over there in March.

Thanks for the great hang-time at Hot Springs guys. I made it home safely. It was a little icey through the mountains, but then it cleared up. Again thank and hope to see all of you again soon. I...

Target locked.. I've been chasing these hangers through two states. Not given up.

What is the name of the campground in Hot Springs. I drove up to the Highlands and am now heading to Hot Springs. Can I setup camp tonight?

I sure hope I can make it up that hill in my Mini Cooper. She does have new Yokohama tires. Sometimes small and light is better than big and heavy, we shall see. Looking forward to meeting everyone....

I will the new guy. Turns out I have business in Burlington, NC that week.

Ok, I got it dialed in tonight. Probably what happened was the Yeti actually was on backwards, as I kept messing with it in the dark. Tonight I felt completely warm all over the coverage area. As you...

Yeah, I totally felt that as well and did the same with my jacket. This evening I will try the setup again, verifying and recording everything including the positioning of the quilt. Then I will...

Yes I did have it backwards at the beginning, but fixed it right off. To the above there is no adjustments unless I untie the not Warbonnet placed on the head tention line.

I am going to play...

So I went out over the weekend to test the new WB Yeti and Mamba 3 season. With the front moving through on Sunday the temp dropped to 32 degrees with some decent winds. As you can see in the...

First of all this is a great forum! I was born a poor southern child. Ah , just kidding. Anyway yeah, I am an avid backpacker, mountaineer, cyclist, and have done a few triathlons in my past....

Merry Christmas from Charleston. SC. Love ya Shug.
