About 70 to 75 I use no insulation, but sleep in sweat pants and Under Armour leggings. So far, below 70 I've rigged a sleeping bag or old blanket as an underquilt. But I've just gotten a PLUQ ready...
I got a new ENO Guardian net a couple of months ago. The very same thing w/mine! Just zipper "stock" sewn in from top to bottom w/no tongue or the thing the tongue attaches to either. (I don't know...
Welcome from AL! That's a really nice part of the country out where you are! Enjoy the forum! I learn something every time I get on here!!
Welcome from the Far East..........AL. :lol:
A few years! I only lasted a few DAYS before I joined!! You're a patient person for sure!
Have fun!
Welcome from AL! I agree, there sure is a lot to read about and learn here at HF! After much HF research, I just purchased my second hammock today!
"Hang" in there. Sounds like you're off to a...
I just ordered my BIAS WWH kit w/ knotty mod today! I'm looking forward to trying out one of these 11 foot hammocks. I'm hearing that they're more comfortable than the shorter ones.
It will be my...
Hello from Alabama! We've started out alike w/ ENO DN and Guardian BN.
You're 5 nights ahead of me though, as I've only hung 3 nights so far. I'm getting some poncho liners (PL) ready for under and...
A whopping THREE nights so far...........but I'm getting there!:shades:
I've had a Miata for over 22 years. Bought it new in '90. I bought a couple of 8' flourescent bulbs and got them home with the top down, one end in the passenger floor board and extending up between...
The small one: Dinner for One
The large one: Dinner for Two
I'm new here too, but after doing some looking around, I decided to get the ENO Guardian net to go with my ENO double nest hammock.
I like it because when it's unzipped it's not hanging wide open...
Interesting reading this post as I also use a cpap machine. I've only hung three nights so far and all them w/out my machine. I don't have an extension cord that will reach 150yds:rolleyes:.! I'm...
Hey BB, where is this you're talking about? Between Tuscaloosa and Gordo?
Wow! I didn't know about this option. What would be the weight limit to this configuration, and how comfortable is it compared to the ENO material?
Do ya'll mean the Sipsey River near Tuscaloosa? Where's Jericho??
What type of line do you use for the "fixed" length?
I've been using 550 para cord for a structural RL a couple of different nights. My ridgeline always lengthens during the night. I've just read here that even thought the 550 is strong, it still...
I've bought a new 40-60degree bag at walmart for about $9 and saw another brand at Academy Sports for the same price. This was the regular price. That's cheap enough! These are both the adult, "3lb."...
I've about narrowed my options down for a mild weather UQ to one of these two options.
A cheap 3lb. sleeping bag, or a PL. I've looked at the no sew and sew versions of both. It appears that they...
I hear you! It's about only DIY option that I haven't read about yet! I thought surely someone has done this.
Anyone out there made a single layer hammock into a double layer??? With a thread...
I'm thinking some of you already have mine figured out. I was wanting something kinda catchy that had to do w/ hanging. I thought of this old Roger Miller song.

Thanks guys. This all makes sense. Too much shock cord= too stretchy! I'll only use it to gather the ends and a few feet at both ends of the nonstretch line to attach the UQ to the hammock...
I'm getting a cheap 3 lb. sleeping bag ready to use as an UQ. I'll probably cut it down to about 40" wide x 60" long. What size shock cord will be right to hold it in place? I'm gonna run the shock...
Looks nice! How did you keep the sides "folded"? I see some small clamps in the pics. Is that what you used?
I'm trying to come up w/ some simple, quick way to stay warm underneath while I get some...
(I posted this in both the DIY and Insulation forums. Hope it's ok!)
Hey guys. I've been trying to wrap my head around all my different options with the pads and UQs. I'm wanting something for...
Hey guys. I've been trying to wrap my head around all my different options with the pads and UQs. I'm wanting something for this summer and fall where temps should be very mild here in AL.
So far,...
Hey everyone,
I'm sure glad I found HF! I bought a nice rope hammock about a year ago and hung it in my back yard. Well, it completely exceeded my expectations for comfort, r & r! Many times I've...
