Kevin,
I first used it without a ridgeline and did not really experience any problems, of course I am careful about hanging it to get a good hang angle and sag up front. DD recommends a tighter hang...

Hey Gideon, you mentioned a camp area that would be ideal. How far is it from the trail head parking area?

Semo

We are now only three months away from our hang at Hawn State park. I just wanted to remind everyone for your planning purposes. I look forward to seeing everyone there.

Blessings,
Semo

Greeting All,
Has anyone been planing a MO HF hang for 2016? If not may I suggest something around the first weekend of November (5th and 6th). I was thinking perhaps Hawn State Park and the trail...

I currently use the Snugpak Under quilt and Top quilt with my DD Frontline and it works great. I had to be a bit inventive to get the gaps out but it's doable. This passed weekend I hiked and hung at...

First I tied off the short pieces of shock cord one to each lower loop then added one cord lock to the ends of all the shock cords. Then I ran the ends of the cords thru and back thru the cord locks...

Snugpak UQ is 58" wide

Thanks for the post Robv60, I have the set and haven't had a chance to test it in the cold. I have hung inside with it and tweaked the UQ to get rid of the end gaps. I've go a hang coming up the...

Awesome review and hanging info ShortRound! Thanks for the post.

I received my Snugpak Underquilt a couple of days ago and have been playing around with it. I have found that if you attach the longer shock cords, that run thru the edge channels, to a prussik on...

I'm still experimenting with it and haven't tried it on my DD Frontline yet. I'm using it on my inside set up which is a simple gathered end hammock and I tied the two middle cords to the carabiners...

Happy New Year all,
I received a new Snugpak under quilt in the mail a couple of days ago and so far am liking it. I've only been able to use in on my inside setup but found it to be warm and...

Just recieved the Snugpack Under Blanket today and so far am impressed with it for the $$$. Comes in a very nice compression sack and the quilt itself seems to be well made. I attached it under my...

I'm just about to pull the trigger on a Snugpack under quilt. After reading several reviews I want to try one and if I like it will order the top quilt also. I will give my review when it comes in.
...

That does help thx. I do like DD products a lot, have been thinking of getting one of their under blankets.

Ok thx I'll check that out.

The one that I was asking about is the Snugpack Hammock Blanket. It is made like a top quilt and has a foot box and side wings.

Ok Great! I'm also interested in the cocoon. I'll be interested to know what you think of them.

Has anyone used one of the Snugpack hammock blanket top quilts? What is the temp rating? Overall impression, etc.
Thanks

Do you think they will work with a Kelty Noah 12 tarp?

Withdrawn no longer for trade, mods please close this tread thank you.

Will do Gideon. I hike and hang on the OT trail some too.

Lol I completely understand, I'm the same way. My hiking buddy calls me the modifier

Yes Passinthru, it did have camo arrow shafts. I bought it off the forums here, it was probably yours then. At least I know the history of the eyelets lol. Did guying it out in an asymmetrical shape...

Greetings All,
I have a question for those of you that have a longer history with DD hammocks than myself. I now have two DD Frontline hammock, both I acquired used. One I've had for awhile and used...

Yes down does suffer a bit in those conditions, exactly why I also used a pad and synthetic sleeping bag.

Wasn't going to let the rain ruin a chance to camp so I geared up and hiked to a secluded spot in the General Watkins conservation area here in Missouri. Set up my tarp in the rain then all was well....

Would you be interested in a smaller external frame backpack like new condition for your pack? It's an Alps Mountaineering Zion.

I would like to trade my like new Alps Zion external frame backpack for a larger pack for winter camping. It's a 65 liter pack and weights around 4 lbs and is in perfect condition I've only been out...

Wow kinda heavy, you interested in trades?

Do you know the liters and weight? I'm looking for a different winter pack. I have a like new Alps Mountaineering Zion External frame (65 liter) but looking for something bigger.
