    Ditto; except that pocket. I still hate the pocket, but can't bring myself to cut it off.
    I still use mine often and usually spend a bit of time when I'm around Brandon pestering him to make me another one. But, nooooooooooooooo.

    The pics are missing because I threw a temper tantrum a year and half or so back and deleted my gallery. Dumb on me. I've still got the pics on my home PC and will try to remember to post them tonight.

    Here's a pic from my gallery. It was my third night of cold weather testing in my ElDorado and I didn't know it was going to snow! This was my father's backyard on Xmas morning in 07'; the whole family decided I was mentally challenged after looking out the window in the morning.

    And yes, I'm in there. You can see where my breath has melted the snow above my face. You can also see the prototype Yeti has slipped by a pretty good chunk. If you look really close, you can see the Xmas lights strung along my external ridgeline.

    Trust nobody!

    I like that pocket! I was actually thinking about sewing one to my DIY version.

    Something as small as a knife makes the pocket hang too close my head and wonks me from time to time. I'd like it OK if it was in a different position, but as it stands I barely ever use it. Neat idea, but the practical applications don't work for how I roll.

    Another ElDorado owner here. I'll snap some pics next time I take it out.

    I also have a side-zip double layer Traveler from the same time frame (before he named it). I think that's my favorite hammock.
