JRB Mt Washington Adjustment Question

..........................

Also the ends should be drawn to a width of 14-16 inches on most gathered end hammocks....Looking at the photo of Billslades set up they appear too tight thus forcing the quilt to stand off from the hammock....Probably a cause of his draft issue the first night.

Thanks, good to know!

Pan,

Thanks for the explanation!

I now know all the things I was doing wrong that first hang with the MWUQ.

- Using the hammock side tie outs
- Not having the tarp set low on a windy night
- I don’t believe I had a secondary hitch in the underquilt suspension
- I didn’t hook up the center pull on the quilt suspension
- Pulling the ends of the quilt to tight

Wow, hopefully all this trial and error will help when I go back to using the Nest in warmer temps.
