    Thumbs up Hi Im New!

    Hi,

    My name is Tom Perry,and I live in Cape Cod Massachussetts. I do alot of my hiking north from here in the White Mtns.. Im an Ultralight hiker,whos yet to be able to expereience the wonders of hammock camping/hiking.Ive just been using a custom made spinnaker cloth tarp,a Tyvek groundcloth, a thermarest Neoair,a ULA Circuit, and Minibulldesigns Crazy cooking kit w/ mini-atomic stove,Sometimes Ill bring my Bios stove w/ MSR Titan mug/pot to switch it up a bit. But I got alot of other gear to.Ive recently started building stoves and pots to give to the homeless, But I havent been able to keep up with the damand! So If theres anyone ,I mean anyone that might be able to help out with mabye some old cooking kits ,pots,stoves, etc. It would greatly help me and those less fortunit. Im having T-shirts made when I get a little more money from a fellow co-worker, so Sooner then later Id be able to send those that donate one, just e-mail me your size and when there up and ready Id put them aside.Where I am theres not many people who care much about the homeless. Im not talking about Bums a.k.a alcoholics that are on the street, Im talking about real genuine good people whove just had it really hard. Well Thanks for reading, and if you would like to help e-mail me, or if you want we can chat on the phone. Thanks again, ttys

    Hello Tom,
    Welome to hf. Hope you find what you looking for here. I would interested in sending some stoves and pots your way. Pm me your adddress. I had a similar thought a few years ago: "hammock for homeless". Never went very far though. Keep up the good work.
