I'll take the bottle holder. $20 CONUS?
Camelback-I'll take it. PM info puhleaze.
Also, I see two pics but what appears to be 4 different packs. In the second pic, what is the green-ish looking one?
I took down the clark because of some rough weather coming. The next day I go outside to find my stand had turned into a laundry line for drying ladies unmentionables. No respect.
Roughin it at Dismey Fort Wilderness campground. It's my Fortress of Solitude away from the 7 Japanese women occupying my camper. Good times. :/

Dang. Two minutes. Some of you guys mist have an emergency alert system rigged to the for sale forum here!
Zombie thread I know, and I shouldn't critique since I' m right in the middle of blatantly ripping off this desgin ( more or less), but I 'll be danged if I can seehow you get that last 20' sumthin"...
Cant help with all, but a couple ideas anyway.
Best way I found to keep my pad in place was to buy a sleeping bag that has a pocket for one. I use a Big Agnes bag. Works great.
For inside...
Offer withdrawn. Have at it fellas, these are nice packs. I love my Aarn.
$170 shipped to satisfy my urge to barter, and I'll take it. Deal?
Two sets of 6 footers please. And I know this post looks like it's way down the list, but it was actually first in line.. There was a small hiccup in the space/time continueum that makes it look...
Money sent...
Did I mention I hate this place? Every time I come in here I spend money. It's worse than Wal-mart. :)
I'll take it, per PM terms....
Willing to split? I have a weakness for leatherman, Gerber, not so much. :)
Are there photos or a vid somewhere of how this works with your tarp? I'm unfamiliar with the setup and having trouble visualizing....
I'll take it.
How much use on the filter?
Soooo, did this sell elsewhere or ???.....
I'll take it, and the bag too if you can find it. PM your paypal info.
Hey there from North-East-ish Canton. You're just a hop & skip from me. :)
For crikeys sake. Take a break for a couple months and somebody has to slip in a new acronym. What the heck is an AIOS? Any others invented in my absence that I need to figure out? :)
No I don't have both types of hammocks but as I recall the marketing the pockets were supposed to keep you warmer by adding clothing and whatnot inside them to act as insulation, not just by virtue...
I removed 2 of the 6 pockets on my North American. As far as I could tell the only thing they are good for is holding stuff, whatever it may be, and had little to no effect when it came to...
I guess I'm going to be the nay-sayer. :) I use a pad, in conjunction with a bag that's made to accept a pad, so I don't have to do any gymnastics getting in or out. The pad stays put because...
I just bought an NX-250 with the Vertex tarp. Do you have any need or interest in having one of these for R&D?
Wait a minute. I thought Dutch was YOUR PR guy. At least when he isn't busy trying to break into other peoples hammocks. :lol:
It's already on its way back to Clark.
I think I've found a solution that will work well for me. I have an Aarn pack and they sell something they call tool pouches that attach to the side of the pack. I think they're meant for hiking...
Don't get me wrong, I like it already and not a bit of buyers remorse. The suspension I already knew would stick. I have a North American and it's suspension stank as well and I expected no less...
For the suspension, not the hammock. :)
Oodles of room in this thing but the jury is still out about the pole suspension. It does seem to do the job of making the interior seem more roomy but...
They can all be frustrating sometimes, and sometimes surprising. I bought something from Tokyo one time and it was on my door step in TWO days. You can't beat that with a stick by any stretch. I...
I have a BA Lost Ranger and 2 different pads to go with it. One is a self inflater and the other is a blow up insulated. If I recall the blow up is rated to 15 deg (same as the bag) and the self...
Just wondering if I'm moving up that List yet. I got a new hammock and I'm itching to add the IX to it and see how she fits. :)
If those prices are shipped, I'll take those gaiters for sure. Have any pics of the rest?
Couple questions.
1) What is a rope thimble?
2) What is it used for?
3) Will it henceforth be called an RT, or will it remain a "rope thimble"
Ok, I know that's three questions but the...
I don't think there is anything special about the Clark design. It's just a channel.
I get what you're saying about adding another ring and the weight wouldn't bother me but, and maybe I'm being...
I intended to look into his system for the Clark I have coming but I have a question about it. It seems from his online description that the fixed eye of the whoopie is attached to the descender...
こんいちわ はじめましえ わたしも にほんご わ じょずでわありませn ね? でも がんばります!
Don't worry. Your English is better than my Japanese. Welcome to the Forum. You made a good video and I'm sure you will find lots of good...
Good luck with that. Either nobody buys them, or nobody is willing to give one up. :) I ended up biting the bullet and ordered from Clark. It'll be here Monday.
Money going out in todays mail.
My packed showed up today, right on schedule. Kudos to Aarn USA for getting it right out most expeditiously.
First impression is there are a LOT of straps to be adjusted. I'm starting to get the...
Too many girls in my life. Todays just turned 31. I've got one about 4 1/2 and another that turned 3 in Jan. My mother lives with us AND her best friend. The closest thing I have to a son is my...
Ok, ok. Consider them sold. I'll get back to you on specifics a bit later. Right now my birthday girls is visiting so I better put in an appearance.
Color is only part of the equation if you are trying to be stealthy. This may have been covered since I'll admit to not reading the whole thread, but probably the biggest problem to overcome is the...
Not a clue. Christmas isn't usually a big gift event for the wife and I. For the most part we buy whatever we want when we want it and don't wait around for the holiday. The kids on the other hand...
Woo Hoo! My new NX-250 is on its way. Aarn shipped out my New Balance pack, both my El' Cheapo Guide Gear tarps arrived yesterday, and I should be able to pick up my new to me rain suit tomorrow. ...
$20?
Paypal works for me.
What happened to the NX-250 that went along with the liner?
I'm 5' 10" and way too close to 220 lbs (at the moment!) and I fit just fine in a NA.
Or you could buy my Gently Used but Raccoon assaulted NA for $225. ;)
I use a Lost Ranger and either an insulated air core, or a 2 track. The air core is lighter and good to 15 deg, same as the bag, but the 2 track is good down to 0. Or so they say. I don't have...
