Sounds good Hobbit, Will be good to see all of you guys again. wonder if we will get to antagonize another mouse with doc's coco again this year? lol. Gonna be a good weekend.
Pot luck is cool but we would have to camp first night close to parking lot? Then get up on sat and pack up and hike down to the water? This sounds OK with me. I would like to camp two spots, then...

I use a s.s. an have had it down to 17f never had a prob. but dont like the bulk. I put it all together before I start out cause for me it's to much to set up at a camp site in the cold.I do want to...
Well boys have a safe trip, man, wish I could tag along. take lots of pic's and video. and dont forget the bloopers.
Have had my SS down to 17 with no added under insulation, used a five degree bag to sleep in. The space blanket is a must.
used mine at the PA Marion Brooks Hang last weekend and it worked great. 5f bag with fleece liner. I will have to check but I think we had 17f at night. No cold feet or butt.
Well I set out to learn and pick up tips of the trade, and boy did I ever.You can watch videos and read books, but the chance to hang out with a group that knows and loves what they are doing,well I...
Well what a great time. First group hang for me and I enjoyed the stories and gear talk. The wild swings in the weather, The food, and meeting all of you hangers. I cant remember when I have laughed...

K, Snow report, a co worker had a job 4 miles from the boot camp, 15" of snow, 1/2" weak crust on top.
I made my own stuff sack and pack the hh/ss all in one. It makes setup a lot easier for me. Back yard tests went well but I will find out for sure on the Feb.NW pa hang. Don't have a top cover but am...

Hi gang, Just around the corner now, Feel like a kid waiting on Christmas. Got a question about the pulk. Other then down hill, Why a rigid connection verses a rope ?
