    I have to go with brown or camo. Just don't like those"Hey! I'm over here!" colors.

    My wife has the 1.0 double coyote and I have the 1.7 double olive green. Must admit I like the coyote color better (no I am not getting rid of my BB )

    Would like to see a camo version.

    No prefrence on tarp colors at this time.
    I am still 18 but with 52 years of experience !

    I have the Olive version, but my dream BB would be in multicamo - great when stealt camping....
    And a multicamo tarp would be even better

    I like the grey. I really don't consider grey a "hey, I'm over here" color. Really don't like camo in general though.

    The most popular colors should be in there, grey(light) and camo. When I bought my sil there wasn't much of a choice other than the gray. Unless I wanted bozo orange, or red

    I like the hammocks in olive

    I like my tarps in a lighter grey (not an option in the poll).

    I like natural earth tones, so browns and greens. I'm really liking the "Ranger Green" that is more gray/brown than what our military calls "Sage"; Patagonia calls it "Alpha Green".

    I like to feel that I'm blending with nature rather than being in an obnoxious or loud color.
