I'm looking for a 60L sub 3 pound pack that can carry loads as much as 40 pounds. I typically carry closer to 25-30, but some trips require me to carry ~8L of water and that can get heavy.

Looking for a 30F 850 fill power top quilt.
I plan on using it with my hammock and tent with my exped pad.
I'm 6' and weigh 180 lbs, so a regular/regular typically fits.
thanks

would have loved to be in on this deal. No Kmarts where I live.

This looks really sweet. I wish I had seen it last week before I bought my GSI Minimalist Solo. I think I would prefer this pot. Oh well, live and learn.

The tarp is cat cut and didn't flap when the wind was blowing, just popped very loudly when the wind started after a slight pause. We had it strung as tight as we could get it.
The flapping came...
or not a breeze but heavy 40-50mph winds.
Last week we were hanging in west texas when a wind storm came up and started to blow. I had a couple issues when the wind got so strong.

I have my UQ sewn, but have a quick question regarding the shock cord. I have two pieces in the short ends (~42 inches) with one end sewn into the grossgrain and the other with a cord lock. I have...
Thanks for the videos. I grew up in Asheville and have hiked Linville and Pisgah area a lot as a kid. I didn't really appreciate the beauty there until after I left. I just figured everywhere...
Great directions. Just finished these for my Superfly.

I'll take the gear hammock if jkloeker decides against buying it.

I"m getting ready to try making one myself, but have a quick question.
the instructions say to cut the top and bottom covers like the top and bottom patterns for the IX. Does this mean I cut the...
I took it for a test hang last night. Went with about 12 boy scouts, hiked in about 3 miles, setup and hung the night. This was my first night in this hammock and my first night in any hammock...
I just built the other DIY bug netting (the one with pockets) to go with my DIY double layer hammock, both from the same place. I also found that the bug net was too small. For me I think the...
I made two sets of these Saturday and they turned out great. One thing I learned, turn them right side out starting with the small end. I didn't do this and thought I had sewn the pocket wrong,...

These things just go too fast!
I went the easy route and bought a superfly from Warbonnet. Was more $$ than I wanted to spend, but I know it will work for me for a very long time.

I saw that one, do you have any idea what it weighs? I couldn't find it anywhere, the I saw this "nice" ones and thought maybe I'd get lucky and could get a nice one.

Yes another WTP tarp request.
I ordered the Guide Gear one just to be disappointed with the sky I could see through it, and it being the wrong size. So here I am looking for a better tarp.

I"ll take a 2.5" set.

Well I got it all made up.
I ended up hemming the entire sides, as I want to attach some stabilizing shock cord as I get motion sickness in a hammock and hope this will help calm that down. ...
I got the two pieces cut. I got my fabric from Magna and the salvage ends were hammered. I had to trim off 1-1/8" from both sides to get it cleaned up.
I used my soldering iron and a long piece...
I just got everything in the mail today. Made my whoopies and am now ready to move onto the hammock itself.
I've a question on the transition where you go from hemming both pieces together to...
I put an order in and about 5 days later I got my 20yds of 1.1 ripstop camo. The only issue I had was that one end of the role was not wrapped. it didn't appear to damage anything, just a little...
Do you happen to have a link to the GT double hammock? I was able to find the ENO one.
Very new here and don't kkow which hammock as GT seems to have several different types.
