    The Ultimate Hang

    I dont want to sound like a commercial, but WOW, what a good book. I just got it, and almost read the entire thing in one day. If work hadnt kept getting in the way, I would have. I couldn't put it down. Good information, and very entertaining easy reading style. Great work Dejoha!

    It is a fantastic book! Derek has done some great things for HF and the people here.

    You Bet Gothmog!
    The hammock-hang calculator is a nice tool as well:

    +1 on that. It is a good primer. I also refer back to it occasionally. He also shares many of his illustrations here.
    Keep movin', keep believing and enjoy the journey!

    I have two hammock books, this one, and an Ed Speer book. Thought about using them as PIF, but just can't do it. Too much good info in them. I need to read them again, when I get them back. Just Monday, I loaned both out to a couple of scouts.......RR

    I may be wrong, but after getting "familiar" with a few faces on here from various pics and vids posted, some of the illustrations look, well, familiar.
