Sorry about the delay in response. I neglected to read the rules for posting on this site.
the small HH tarp , asking for $10 plus $6 shipping.
I have a Hennessey small green Assym tarp , measures about 10 x 6 feet. I got it with a Scout model I purchased two years ago but replaced the tarp with something larger. I never used it and just put...
Looking for suggestions on the minimal size tarp I can get away with while still offering good all weather 3 season protection using a Warbonnet asym blackbird. Ideally should protect the underside...
I used a Gossamere Gear thinlite pad 20 inch width and a Zlite 20 inch. They dont stay on the diagonal. The only thing that works somewhat better is using a short pad cut to the length of a footbox....
I have the double bottom BB and I am having a real hard time getting any full size pad (have tried several) to stay put in a diagonal position. The pad keeps slipping out of the foot box and into the...
OK, well the you tube video shows the suspension being used with a biner. It looks like you can skip the biner but that means you would have to undo the strapping in the buckle and then thread back...
No need for biners? Ok, then I dont understand how this suspension system works. Why is there a loop at the end of the strap? Maybe the you tube video will help.
I just recieved my BB hammock with the adjustable strap suspension and I was surprised that there were no included carabiners. Do you have to purchase them separately? If that is the case, what type...
Do you have a preference for color on your top quilts/sleeping bags, black vs bright colors vs natural colors etc. I traditionally have liked black but I find that black tends to make finding objects...
Yes, I realize the comments are tongue and cheek.
The truth is that about half my nights have been on the ground and half in the hammock. Sometimes the ground is better and sometimes the hammock...
I am convinced that the nausea and dizziness your are experiencing is due to motion sickness. Let me explain: Since you are not able to "see" the horizon/landscape around you while inside the...
Due to very cold weather and a poorly performing insulated air pad I decided to go to ground a few weekends ago and was surprised at how comforable I was. It has been a while since I slept on the...
I am looking at JRB Hudson River and Nunatak alpinist to use as a top quilt and they both appear generally similar in quality, temp rating, loft height, and weight, but huge price difference....$200...
good online source for Evazote pads (like GG thinlight)?
any advantage to purchasing a quilt over a sleeping bag? Most good quality bags dont weigh much more than quilts.
Am in the market for an underquilt and am considering the Yeti but am concerned about my legs/feet getting cold in temp under 40F.
Is the zipper on both sides of the blackbird or just on the left? Can you use a right side zipper sleeping bag?
I wanted to post a follow up to my first time low temp hang last weekend on the NY state AT. Temp was as predicted 27 deg F on Friday night and 33 degrees on second night both with 10-15 mph breeze....
I am planning a weekend AT trip in NY and temps expected to drop to 27. I have a HH, BA insulated pad, 15 deg BA down Zirkel. I am a moderate to cold sleeper. Any suggestions?
Which UQ do you use with the BA pad?
I have not tried an UQ yet, but I find that using the Big Agnes insulated air pad is more comfortable than simply lying in the hammock without it. The air pad creates a near perfectly flat bed-like...
I am trying to find a commercially made stuff stack that has an opening on each end that can be closed with a drawstring on each end so I can use it as a bishops bag for my Hennessy hammock. The...
well...the reason I use the bowline is because its the only method that absolutely never slips after its tied. Every other method I have used...HH lash, ring buckle back up by two half hitches, etc...
what is the advantage of using ring buckle system vs using a good knot like a bowline? Adjustability? Why can't you simply use the needed suspension rope length and tie off to the tree webbing/tree...
How taut should the HH suspension rope be?
Has anyone tried to cut up squares of reflectix and insert into the six underside pockets as a sole means of under insulation?
I am presently using a BA insulated air pad with a BA bag but am considering going to an underquilt or peapod set up. However, I am concerned about vulnerability of the down quilt to rain and...
1. Keeps your feet elevated and helps them recover
2. props up your head for better reading position if you read at night
3. stay away from the mice, rats, crawling and flying insects (bug net)...
How would you arrange 3 hammocks with one adult and two kids so that you have the maximum amount of proximity and visual contact. I tried arranging overlapping rainflies once with me and one child,...
It looks like you are setting up a spring loaded trap with the unwary victim wanting to "test out" the hammock and ending up trapped in the net. I think it would be painful if that picnic table...
Where can I get a Hennessy Hammock EXPEDITION ASYM for the best price? Used is also an option.
What is the most compact and lightweight hammock that includes an attached mosquito net. I am looking for something that I can keep in my daybag at all times for quick deployment when the opportunity...
The two or three times that I have done this I tie one end to the roof rack and the other end to whatever else is available. Two cars with roof racks works best. One time I used the car roof rack...
I wonder if just having a rainfly is enough to keep bugs to a minimum. I am assuming of course that you have some type of layer underneath you, like a pad or underquilt and at least one layer of...
Looking for a lightweight summer top quilt for my Clark hammock. Weight and compressibility are my top priorities. I like the wt and quality of the JRB Shanendoah but also am attracted to the ...
When selecting a sleeping bag for hammock use, do you generally go for a lower temperature rating? My understanding is that temperature ratings are based on use with a fully enclosed tent on the...
Are these carabiners http://www.jacksrbetter.com/index_files/Micro%20Carabiners.htm strong enough for hammock suspension setups?
How do you keep your bishops bag from getting wet during rainstorms?
A kayaker at Round Valley Recreational area in NJ got killed when lightning hit the tree that he was hanging his hammock from about 3 years ago.
The only hammock I have had success with using an inflatable pad and laying flat is the Hennessey asym. However, with the bottom entry it was difficult to set up with an inflatable mattress inside...
I'm a NJ resident, and I had to sleep in my basement hammock last night. You get too sweaty sleeping on a bed. The hammock provided enough bottom ventilation to keep me from sweating and the cooler...
could have been
1. bug bites
2. poison ivy
3 dermatitis
4. shingles
But if its gone, then no big deal, its gone
Does anyone here experience neck discomfort while lying in a hammock? Do you use pillows and if so what do you use?
I never had these issues with my Hennesy Asym, but any other hammock I will...
I dont know..... seems to me that it would be easier to keep everything attached. If it DOES rain or the tarp is wet in the morning, THEN you can separate it and pack them up separately.
I have noticed that many Clark users separate the fly from the hammock? What is the advantage of this? Now you have 6 lines to tie off rather than 4 and you have to wrestle with the tarp instead of...
what do you use for spreader bars on the Claytor?
is there an after-market solution that can easily be packed in with the hammock?
has anyone ever done this and do you need a ground cloth
what is the best method to hand 3 hammocks together as close as possible. Its me and my 2 young sons, so I want to be as close as possible to them.
This is for backpacking but I am thinking maybe...
