No problem at all. Work is the only thing that has been keeping me and the family from hanging with you folks again. I hope to get things figured out soon and get out to hang with you folks.

I will hopefully be heading to Gearfest in Dayton on October and just wondered if I would run into any other hangers.
Interested In One or both weekends as long as work does not interfere. Fall is my favorite time of year to get out in the woods. So expect myself or myself and family.

I'm working on it , I don't know if I have that Weekend free as of yet or heading to the in-laws with the Family.

Working on it , my cold weather gear is sub par as of yet and not sure about my family's plans for me this weekend .but will try to make it happen. This weekend is looking like the best we will be...
As always , invaluable information and advice.
Thank you hope to hang with you all soon .
i am a big guy at 6'4 300 lbs I used 1/8 woopies for peace of mind overkill, should i consider 7/64 ridgeline . at my weight that puts a tone of stress on the ridgeline with a far apart hang
From where should I get a pre made structural ridgeline . Opinions? Suggestions.
I did my own woopies and I choose to spend a little money to avoid the frustration .
Thanks folks , info appreciated
I don't have money for a UQ what s
ort of foam pad should I use.
Diy woopies, diy tree straps , prussik Tarp suspension. I will be ready to go if I ever get a weekend free
Keep me informed , maybe I can make an Indiana hang if it is not to far.
I am nogo for the weekend of the fifteenth , my wife is planning a birthday party for me invited a bunch of friends. I guess I will have to wait to meet all of you .
Keep your feet on the ground and...
Looking forward to a Sept Hang; hope I can make it, all depends on the weekend.
I found the Toxaway Tarp from arrowhead equipment for 95 in sil . i missed the sale in the beginning of the month i believe but price vs weight not bad i think.
I am thinking about a Hennessy Hammock Asym Hex Fly. at 70 bucks it is looking like a good option for me as i have a limited budget.
Suggestions ?
Better for my money ?
Opinions?
I have a good friend in Milford Ohio I hike with.
I will make it to an Ohio hang soon , getting woopie sling diy ropes tonight. will not be able to make it to the Aug 25 Ohio hang but maybe next one
