I found these at Home Depot Friday. They measure 16" long and are pretty heavy duty. They are for tying down party tents. I built a quick setup stand that I am going to try these stakes with.

No, I wish. We just hiked the perimeter of the park. We had almost 50 people with scouts and adults. I won't share how many miles we hiked in the 6 hours we were there in order to save myself from...

I use my snake skins with my hammock and super shelter only. I get a small bulge in the middle that I get packed in the skins with some finesse. It helps to anticipate the bulge about 2' from each...

Hey all-

I just returned from a Boy Scout trip this weekend to Valley Forge, PA. Low temps Friday night were 33* with 5-10 mph wind gusts. I had my HH w/Supershelter and a 0* bag. I...

Nice tarp project and writeup. Thanks for posting.

Amazon has them, but they are $20 + $9 shipping.

For $10 it looks like something to have on hand. I don't think I would rely on it if there was severe or wet weather in the forecast, but I'd guess it could handle a passing shower. I'll definitely...

Welcome aboard Jollyllama. I'm in Harford County.

Deucallion: I go out to Greenridge at least 2-3 times a year. Love it there. That would be a great place for a group hang!

I've hung in my HH Expedition on 3 BSA trips now. I am the only hanger in a troop of about 50 boys + adults. (I'm one of the adults, at least if age is what qualifies you) I hate the old canvas...

I definitely prefer my SS to a sleeping pad. It is much more comfortable, I still get the full comfort of the hammock and I can go down to 40* without much alteration/additional insulation other than...

I haven't used my zip ties yet either...I don't particularly care for the idea. I do like the mini-biner idea so I'll have to try that instead. Thanks.

easyriver - I've used my undercover with pad, my coat, flannel shirt and a space blanket and I was toasty at 30*. There wasn't much sag, but it was a synthetic coat and not nearly as heavy as my...

At first glance the size doesn't seem to justify it weighing 3-4#. I agree with Bobby, I've owned Kelty packs and tents in the past and they've always been good quality.

Nice trip report. I've been camping several times in the last few months with my sons BSA troop. I always take my HH to hang from. Both boys and parents come to check it out in awe and ask a bunch...

Awesome movie! I'm looking forward to seeing the others.

I spent 4 days in Dolly Sods last year and it was an awesome trip! I recognized several of the places from your movie. I've been trying...

odds - thanks. As all things are with my boys, I'm sure it will be an adventure, so I'll keep ya posted.

river - I'm up in Bel Air. I've lived in MD all my life, so I've camped all over it.

Hey y'all,

I'm another lurker that finally decided to sign up. I bought my hammock in August after wanting to try it out for the past couple of years. I've been waiting for my sons to get a...

LOL...one night I had the bright idea I was going to have one side of my hammock attached to my jeep and the other to a long 2x6 secured by lines and tent pegs. It sounded great. I got in the...

Hi, my name is h4wk and I am a hanger. :D

I had wanted to trying hanging for the last couple of years, but my boys were too young for me to leave them in a tent without me. Now that they are...
