Do it all the time. Hood up to a telephone pole and truck, palm tree and truck. Use the holes in the corners of the bed of the pick up. No worries. I am 270. Corner fence post and my truck. Often at...

That is a Frost River. :boggle: It is pure awesomeness. His grandkids will use that bag.
Great report and I like all the pics. Love the pack too. Only thing missing is an ax!
I roll mine up in my magellen inflatable pillow
Sleep with a TQ and UQ and you will get it. The bag just dont cut it IMO. With bag you have to also bring a pad. Then fight the pad all night to keep it under you. I started with what I had which was...
I hang lowwww. I like to just roll out to pee. And climb back in on my knees. No standing required.
Go to the gym, you could then handle the mouse and the oz. :)
Makes me anxious for my baby girl to get a bit older. She hikes with me now but I have to carry her crap too. :)
Who song is that. I dig it. That is some turn the lights down air condioner up and...
I doubt I want to "camp" next to a hwy or interstate. I also doubt I would risk losing my job trespassing on someone's land, much less risk getting shot, walking up finding someone that does not want...
I use para cord for ridge line. 50 ft of it. Then use the thin version of this.

for my guy lines. That attach to...
The camo is awesome to watch in the wind. Looks like camo water
The Goodwater Hang-over Hike
Only if we wake up and can't remember the night before, I am wearing another person's sandals, we have powdered sugar on our faces and there are three bullets missing...
You reach in under the top layer grab what you need. Don't lift the whole top up
Add a piece on the inside on top as well with a towel over it. That way when you open it all your cold ness is not dumped out.
Rat and wildman have never let me bring food to camp.
Is food allowed :)
What's up rangers.
A cool river in TX heat and a good night sleep with air moving all around you. Only way to camp in TX during the summer. Other wise you are just miserable.
I have not had issues either. I just pack it all up. If its damp I will dry it all out at home. If its wet and damp enough outside then I tend to give it a day or so on all my gear opened up in the...
I am built like shrek. Have to go watch the vids when I get out. Subscribed
Was not calling you a crook. I was telling you of two places where you or anyone else can usally find them for less. It was a tip. If I bought something for 23 bucks and someone told me where to buy...
2.99 at academy sports. I use them. They are cheap. I have bent a few but they are cheap. I have lost a few but they are cheap. :) Pretty much disposable IMO. Cant beat the price.
I am sorry, It was not meant to be rude. My line of thougt was wow that is twice what I paid. Here are two places where I have seen them for less so maybe the OP and anyone else could check it out....
I dont typically find my feer much higher when actually in the hammock laying / direction. But if i hang them level I find at ridge that cuts into my calf.
Walgreens and Walmart always have them here. 14 bucks
I am often a pack mule too. Its fun to use all your gear. Then weed some out. Then add it back and weed this out instead of that. Have to switch it up a bit. Still have not found exactly what I want....
That looks perfect!
This is what I use, or make some out of branchs on site. Four good strikes per stake and have some large strong stakes that I did not have to carry in.
I want a stove like that! I dont mind a draft. Its not that cold here in TX.
why not hung?
Just got two of the 81/2 by 81/2. They are for my 3 year old car camping. They seem to be a good value. It dont rain here in TX. But it will keep the sun off us. I would buy them again so far. But I...
I do need a vacation. :) With out a 26 mile hike. Just messing with you brute
Where are the pics? :)
THis is what we do. Keeps them upside down so rain and debris dont get blown in. Easy to shake to get the scorpions, spiders, and other critters out.
My experience is they have a lot of sag. You start off the night alright, then end up with your butt in the ground. You are also limited in the settings. There are pull straps from harbor freight...
I use them for my guy outs on the superfly. I use about a 6 inch piece of shock cord looped to attach to the tie out on tarp. Then connect the s biners. then to the guy lines. They hold up better...
Mine is pretty easy. Set up camp at night while my daughter was asleep. Set the hammock on a hill side over looking lake travis. Lots of hills for miles, we up pretty high and had a great view of the...
I did use rubber bands. I still use them on a few things because they are handy for a resource. They are pretty good at getting a fire started. I use them to keep snack bags closed that my 3 year...
If I had an option today i would buy the xlc. But my bb suits me fine enough. Aint nothing wrong with it at all. I am 6foot 265lbs. I sleep with my daughter in the hammock with me since she was maybe...
I am not to far from y'all. Up in round rock. My fave places to hang around here are mule shoe bend park, granger Wma, Colorado river,47309

This is muleshoe.
What is zing it? I know rope but why so popular? Strength to size is my guess?
I sure you will bud. Thanks again.
Sent you the 150. Should told me you were dropping it 10 bucks :) send me the nicer one at least. I have never done Paypal like this. Very nervous. I hope I did not just give some random yahoo 150...
Never mind I found it, I will take the top quilt. What camo pattern?
Can I get the a pic and lengthy width of top quilt
I have never camped in snow. In my bucket list. Does everything end up wet?
Google is my friend :) great idea. I have some seam seeler on hand. That's perfect.
What's silnet?
Thought about that too. Thanks might give it a try. It's just so small.
I have a warbonnet super fly and is seems to have a tiny hole in it from last trip. Think an ember landed on it. It's about the size of a "nerds" the tiny candy. Sorry could not think of anything...
