Price reduced to $40 on hammock.
The hammock has dyneema/spectra for suspension. This is some of the nicest cordage you can get and was super expensive. The hammock body is made of 1.9oz DWR and...

Tarp has been sold.
Thank you NCPatrick. Yeah, decided that hammock camping was just more complicated than I wanted. I am definitely still hiking.
JRB No Sniviller sold.
JRB Stealth has been sold.
The JRBs are regulars.
My MacCat Deluxe clone is 130" x 104". I think I was wrong about the weight. I can't remember the weight, but I know that it is under 12oz. I was pretty sure it was under...
[SOLD]JRB Stealth $150
There is absolutely nothing wrong with it. I am selling it because I have too many sleeping bags.

Hennessey is giving a free Scout and Snake skins away with purchase of $100 or more.
The thing that scares me most about the bridge skin is that you are going to rely on something that gets abrasions to hold all of you weight. So I guess one would want to use some heavy fabric, which...
I am very interested in directions for this.
Really you shouldn't cook at camp at all. You should cook an hour or so before you get to camp, to be the safest.
Wait until he get down in southern VA, NC, and GA. Water situations down there are dire.
It made it difficult to read.
In fact, most looked at me a little strange when all I had was a pad. I do thank Youngblood for loaning me the SPE. That most certainly made all the difference in the world. Those wings are where it...
I never have to get up and go unless the weather is cold. No matter the weather, I tend to wake a couple times a night.
I used a CCF pad when I was at SEHHA last spring. It got down to the low 40's. NCPatrick and others can vouch for that. I do agree that every person is different and it is very difficult to say that...
I used a 1/4" CCF down to lower 40's at SEHHA last spring. I got too warm when it got near 50F.
Oh and as another side, it was mid 90's here yesterday. WTF?
I should add that I made fleece socks to keep my feet warm. They are also knee high.
I use my sleeping bag as a quilt. It is kind of nice because I pull the part that normally would be underneath the back of my head over my face to give me a bit more warmth. However, for me the foot...
The hammock probably helped keep his ankle elevated. That would relieve some pain.
Oh and I broke my ankle 10yrs ago, and it still hurts, because I didn't do what Rapt did and follow his Doctor's...
Whatever I hike in.
They don't have UL BackPackers left? If you are not a big person, I would suggest that, however the expedition is good for someone that is a little bit heavier.
You could always use Risk's TestHammock Whipping Method.
Just because I am sure she can't hear enough of it, but Certain lost some weight on her thru.

Correct me if I am wrong, but didn't youngblood just use his MacCat and add these?
I think that the more webbing has between trees does increase sag, but probably not much more than a couple inches.
My wife and I have used a MacCat deluxe over two hammocks. However, the hammocks were literally right on top of each other. I think we need a little more practice doing it that way, but it certainly...
I never did any physical therapy, and I have a bone spur. That should make you feel a bit better.
I broke one of mine over 10 years ago, and it has hurt everyday since. I am starting to get use to it. I am not sure what caused my current ankle injury, but it is pretty much healed now after almost...
HH comes with directions on the stuff sack. Not very good directions though.
Yeah well, apparently if I weighed as much as my wife I would be at the perfect height. Then again I would disappear if I weighed that little.
My hammock is still stretching, since I was unable to go out very much this year due to a injured ankle. Anyway, I tend to end up just 6" off the ground. However, when I start I am about 2.5' off the...
Not to say that BB doesn't know what he is doing, but I didn't feel his explanation of a FF seam made sense. The way I do it and the way I have read it, was to line the top piece of fabric up so that...
You can't get deals for being friends with the maker?
Seriously that is difficult. The backpacker would be something like $20.
EDIT: Called them -- they told me that the one they have for sale, that is similar to the backpacker, is more like the...
Which one?
The only thing that is stopping me is my wife not liking it.
I think I would end up just dissecting it, so that I could work out some issues with my clone. For some reason I end up sleeping on the very edge of my hammock every time I use it, but my wife's...
That light racer is tempting. Just say no! If they had a netless version of the hyperlight, ahhhhhhh...
The netless ultralight is beckoning. I already made one for myself, I need to just keep...
It is the same stuff used for pot cozies.
I am going to try using the tensioner as side tie outs for my hammock. I think that will work decently well.
I fold mine and place it inside where sleeping pads are suppose to go for the ULA Conduit. However, I have a full length GG 1/8". I figured I was more versatile this way. I normally on use 1/2 length...
I guess I missed out on that one.
It is actually the way you are "supposed" to do it according to Niteize.
I was six, so it was 23 years ago. Good thing for a six-year old to have happen to their best friend. Any way, back on topic.
Those hooks are really cool. I wish I could come up with something...

Those are very clever. My biggest concern would be that I would have to use tree huggers again. I am certainly not going to wrap rope around a tree. However, I could shorten my straps and connect the...
I know this isn't really your problem, but moving the figure 9s is real easy. You don't need to thread the rope through the 9s. Just make a loop stick the loop through the hole in the figure 9, then...
