    You don't "need" the video. Just don't get the bugger turned inside out. unfold the pad and lay it on the ground so it matches up what you think it should look like. It really is simple to put together.
    I may be slow... But I sure am gimpy.

    Good to hear that it set up in a pretty straightforward manner first time for a newby( new to SS at least) for a change. Now all that's left is maybe some experimentation to see what you have with you that works good to add on top of the pad or down in the UC to boost warmth. And maybe to see if you will need to make any tension adjustments when you add these things.

    But for most of the year, with lows well above the 30s and especially the 40s, I don't really have to add anything. Except, of course, the SB.

    I haven't had it in the woods yet. Next weekend I planning on a hang in my neck of the woods if anybody want to join me. I'll post something when I get back if there is interest. Some of thate forest land is fabulous and I'll have my vid cam along so I can show you some of it. There is a real ewok village back in there where you could hang for days right along a creek. Off road bicycle route through the hills and woods. I gotta get my bike out there when it gets warmer. I don;t really have cold weather riding clothes.
