Thinkin about trying a bridge hammock.
I could never get comfy in the Hennessy. I'm a side sleeper and never could find the right "lay" in it.
Looking at the bridge styles, I think I might have...

I'm in. Thanks for you generosity!

I can't help with the info you need but I gotta tell you that I'm **** jealous. RMNP is one of my favorite places and I loved the Badlands when I visited. Been thinkin about a way to get out there...

I'm still dealing with some claustraphobia from time to time. Zipped up in a sleeping bag and rolled up like a big doobie in my hammock is no place for a "get the hell out now" episode.:D

I...

My wife's actually from Ga ;)

She was freaked out cause we only use the backdoor for comin and goin. I only took my truck key hiking with me and had to resort to using the front door key I had hidden.

Howdy from Cave City.

I hiked back into Mammoth Cave National Park for a cold weather UQ test.
I recently had a bicep detach in my right arm and have a doc's apptmnt today. Anyhow, I got to my campsite, got a fire...

I did a test hang friday night in the back yard. I used a synthetic mummy bag (heavy n old) that has a hood. As far as I could tell, the hood kept gettin in my way. The bag I ordered is a 20* down...

Is the RR still available?

Thanksd folks. I've been shopping for a good down bag today and havin a helluva time findin the right one at the right price.
i think I want a 20* bag that I can keep warm with if I need it that...

Wondering if it would be best to have a shorter bag. I'm 6' and thought maybe a regular length or a women's length might be better. There would be less bag to deal with (weight, although minimal), no...

If I use my LeighLo 66" 15* UQ under me, and my Big Agnes 45* bag on top, realistically, what kind of temps do you think a warm sleeper could handle? I'd probably wear my Mountain Hardware jacket...

I can't believe how much easier Whoopies are to the stock suspension. Got really tired of lashing and unlashing then lashing again.
Whoopies baby!

Finally after a USPS mix-up and an ice storm I got my UQ from LeighLo today.

Set it up in my basement and chilled for as long as I could stand it. I'm expecting to be warm and snuggly, hopefully...

Sent you a PM.

I ordered a 15* 66" UQ from Leighlo on the 4th. As soon as I get it I'll post my experience with it. Waiting..

I really wanna see this video, but at 1:29 it stops for me. I loaded it three times now with the same result. Bummer!

I got a 66" 15* UQ from Leighlo.
Thanks.

Don't know and couldn't find anything . Do most folks get into the set-up hammock, then sleep directly on the hammock bottom? If I'm not clear, what I mean is do you put something between yourself...

I'm ready to bite the bullet and get an UQ. I can't seem to set my mind on which would be best for me.
If I go with a 30* Uq, realistically, what kind of temp range could I expect to use it. I'm a...

I'm in!! Thank you!

Hey poppa, welcome back.
I'm just a few miles up the road from you in Cave City.

I'd like to play too. Thanks much!!

Sounds like Blue Heron take out to me :D When are you all going?

Ha ha, I am partial to 'em! Glad you found this place.

Welcome Fish! I'm just a little west of you in Barren co. I'm thru RS pretty often. My buddy and I fish the river below WC dam every chance we get. Fish the Green alot too. We've been thinkin about a...

Pooge welcome. Is this the same Pooge that I already know? I bet it is:D

Weather's lookin pretty sshhhii.....crappy.

I free if you all are still plannin on going.

I'll check my calender.

Sounds good, and AMEN on the food. :D

I've only done DF to Green River Ferry in my yak. Been between GRF and Houchins by motor boat.
I really don't care.

Thinkin about puttin in at Dennisons Ferry?

I choose float. My buddy is going to try and join us. He's always busy and it's never a sure thing till it happens, but there may be 4.

I found out today that the weekend that we picked has a...

Tarp is new. Pitched at an angle.

Zukiguy, I think you may have nailed it. It was wet under most of it but it could have been due to the rain runnin down the lines.

Mystery solved??

The tarp was about 4 ft off the ground with my tent about 8 inches under. It rained steady for about 2 hours and when we decided it wasn't gonna quit, we started tearin down camp in the rain. I...

I'm in if everything goes my way.:rolleyes:

I couldn't use the hammock because of lack of trees, but I did tie up to one tree and used a pole I cut and put my tent under it. The tarp leaked and was soaking wet underneath. It was real nice and...

I will call the park today to make the reservation. (Just found out they have the worst automated system I have ever had to deal with)[/QUOTE]

Yeah, I've tried calling them for several different...

BTW, I'm a 6E wide and Crocs fit me well. How wide is your hoof?

I've had a pair of these for 3 or 4 years. Love em. Don't look the best with socks on though:laugh:

Welcome from South Central Ky.

Just puttin some life back into this thread.

Maple springs is the group campground, right? I think alot of horse people use it.

28th & 29th work better for me.
Not crazy about the car camping but I understand. I wonder about being able to hang in the campgrounds there. I know from being there at that time that the...

Got a two day archery shoot the weekend of the march 31 - april 1. Gotta be there. Hope you all have fun.

I think I came to the end of my hammocking attempts lastnight. Someone earlier said it's not for everyone and I reckon I fall into that category.

I again was plenty warm. Only fell asleep for 30...

I was plenty warm lastnight so it had little to do with temp.

I was in my backyard and my backyard is most likely considered "wild" to many of you, except nearly void of trees. Awefully quiet out...

In an attempt to get comfy in this hammock thing, I tried again in my back yard lastnight. After being really tired, I figured this was my best yet attempt at getting some rest in a hammock. I slept...
