    VIDEO: Site Selection and Hammock Set Up

    My friend GreyGorilla and I cover off four basics of proper backpacking site selection, as well as, tips on how to set up a hammock and tarp while you are backpacking.


    Thanks for watching,

    Rob

    Nice video. I appreciate guys like you and Shug that take the time to make and post videos. Sometimes I already know what your video is about but someone may not and usually I learn something. Thank you.

    You do make some of my favorite how to videos. For those who have not see them, Rob has some good stuff on building a stove, shopping for food and details on how to use a lot of different Dutch bling.

    Always good to pick up tips from other backpackers. That one of the reasons I love hiking in a group verses solo. Good stuff, thanks.

    You have been hired as the PR guy (it doesn't pay anything) - congratulations! Thanks for the kind words.
