I bring a 5x7 Wal-Mart Ozark Trails tarp with for my ground cloth and wrap it around my pack at night. I always get out on the left side so I wrap my pack on the right side and then my shoes on the...
I'm very sorry for your loss Paul. Prayers are with you and your dad.
Just ordered my new Bandit TQ. What a great price for a great top quilt of such high quality. Paul went put of his way to make sure that I for exactly what I want. Fantastic company!
Now the hard...
Any overfill?
Nebo Ridge trail is just outside of Brown County State Park and is a nice trail with several "established" campsites. Does require a 2-3 mile hike in, but the trail is in great shape and parking is...
New or old style? Color? any rips/tears?
Take a look at the "Long Distance Travel" sub-category under "Camping Hammocks" in the forum. Lot's of good write-ups, suggestions, questions/answers, etc. Endless amounts of knowledge on these...
I'm in! Thank you for the giveaway.
Thank you Dutch and Derek! And thank you Shrug for all your many contributions through the years!
Great site and GREAT PEOPLE indeed
I'm shorter but around same weight. In love with the Simply Light Designs Streamliner 1.9 DL. Very comfortable and durable. Give Jared at SLD a chance and you won't be disappointed!
Good luck.
I'm in!!! Thanks for the chance and congrats on reaching a whole new level of gear obsession!
Thanks form the chance HK. Looking forward to reading your next giveaway entries!
Happy Father's Day to all the fellow father hangers out there! I hope your day is filled with laughter and love and maybe even a comfy nap in your favorite rig!
Much respect and recognition for...
I love that my children have an opportunity to view all the beautiful places in America. There are so many natural wonders and so much land has been designated for preservation, my kids are learning...
I'm in and very appreciative of the offer!
I've been dreaming of a silnylon gear hammock/packcover for the longest time, but could never find one in black.
Thank you!
What is the ridgeline length of the Micro?
I've tried both 11' and 12' tarps over my 11' SLD DL. I feel more comfortable with the coverage of a 12', but the 11' did cover. I can hang my 12' tarp much higher than I ever could the 11' which is...

Ham Mocker said exactly what I was thinking. These vendors work endlessly to try to keep up with our gear obsession and deserve a little leeway. I understand how frustrating it is when you want...
FOUND: purchased 0* incubator from a HF member. Mods please close thread. Thank you.
Looking for a used 20* uq. Prefer full or 7/8 over 3/4. Funds are tight but been in need for a while. Please let me know if you are looking to sell your good condition uq.
Thanks.
Any idea what the width is on the 20*? (I assume the 60" is the length)
All of the cottage vendors on here are great. Just to add a couple more options to choose from, you should look at the Wilderness Logics Tap Pole, Jacks R Better Hex Tarp, and the Simply Light...
This weekend I stayed 2 nights in the Deam Wilderness with the family. Temp got to 19 on Friday and wind made it feel much colder. I made it through fairly comfortable with my set-up. I know that...
Got my vote! Best of luck Fronkey!
welcome to the forums from down in E'ville!
Hi from E'ville. Check out the Midwest page in the hangouts section. There is the annual hosiery hang coming up in April and many last minute weekend hike-n-hang that are put on the site (sometimes...
Will standard Nalgene fit in any of them?
Lefty here, and have always slept head right, feet left. It would be interesting to sample and see if there is a correlation between hand dominance and lay preference (not volunteering!!!!)
Nice hot tent!
Several places that I have been in HNF during winter. I was with Mule and several others in early December when we went to Nebo ridge (just outside Nashville IN/Brown Co SP). Only a few miles hike in...
I'm in! Thanks
I am shorter, 5' 8", and when I switched from my ENOMDN to the SLD 11' Streamliner, I swore never to go with a shorted hammock. I find the sweet spot almost instantly every time I lay down in the...
This is a nice trail. There is an awesome campsite on the southernmost point of Celina lake. You have to bushwhack a tad to get there, but the site is worth it. Awesome rock cliff over lake with a...
I took my 6 year old (Kyle) out for his first backpacking trip a few weeks ago! My pack was 50 pounds, his was 12 (with water); he slept in a tent with our dog and my 11 year old. The first day, we...
Welcome from the opposite corner of the state. I don't make it up your way often, but there are lots of enlightened Hoosiers on the forums. All I've met are great people!
Not me, but saw this in an article on Yahoo! today........... Takes "hanging" to a whole new level!

I'm not familiar with the claim cleat.
.........googled claim cleat and I found clam cleat. I've used those in the past on my tents and was never a huge fan. Not sure if the knot bones will be...

(sorry it's sideways)
I found 2 of these sets at local Gander Mtn. for $5 ea. Thought I'd try them out for guy line tensioners on my tarp. They aren't the lightest in the world but should be close to weight of the 550...
I'd like to see this hang occur the weekend of the 24th. Have young kids that love to Trick-or-Treat on the 31st. Just my $0.02.
Really looking forward to attending my first HH. Had to miss out the...
+1 on the Wilderness Logics net! I use it with my 11' SLD Streamliner and it fits perfectly. Easy in and out and pretty light (as nets go).
Having never had an integrated net/hammock, I can't speak...
Did Sarge ever come through with this trade? If not, I have an eon dn and have been looking for a lighter summer tarp.
Please let me know.
For what its worth, I really love the 12' ridgeline on the Noah's 12. Not a big fan of the weight and the stuff sack is not user-friendly, but for the price, there are endless possibilities in setup....
I find that if I detach the stuff sack side and leave the other side attached to the tree, it is easier to stuff and keeps everything up off the ground (basically, work the stuff sack back to the...
I love the Peninsula Trail down to Monroe (much more than I like hiking back up!). Hoping to make it out there again in a few weeks.
Nice work! Looks great and it's functional. Thanks for sharing the picks.
Thank you Simply Light Designs for my new double ended tarp stuff sack. My Noah's 12 fits perfectly in the medium. I know that these are designed for hammocks, but I think they are a great idea for...
Hoping thing are going well and the treatments are successful. My dad just finished up chemo treatments and not yet feeling himself, so you are not alone, Dave.
Kick this in the frozen butt so...
Awesome! I'm in. Thank you.
