Fronkey, the Girlfriend and the Bear

Thanks for a great video.

Any chance you could post the dimensions of the tarp you were using? It looks like it would be a good way to get my wife to try hammocking since she doesn't like the 'isolation' factor of a typical 1 tarp 1 hammock setup. Having a tarp that 2 hammocks would fit under might be the ticket to change her mind and get her off the ground.

The width of the tarp is the same as the standard one from HamockGear.com, however the ridge line is 12' long and I have doors only on one side. Also, I have it made from a thicker cuben then what the standard is as well.

Thanks for watching!

2:20pm just woke up to this vid! Superlative in so many ways man. Need more of this new dynamic duo, northern Ca (I'd like to request Shasta, Trinity, or Lassen), and possible to add a hound of some kind?
HF has grown HUGE over the years; if I've missed another of your vids I am remiss.

Thanks so much for watching MM. We are actually going to Yosemite in a couple days and will have some videos from that as well.

Hope you got in a good snooze.

I made a friend today in my walk home.

Looks like he followed us back.

Great trip report, thanks for taking us along

Glad all was well on the first trip, it makes the second one easier to look forward to

Beautiful! And the scenery wasn't bad either (wink, wink).

Good stuff Fronkey, looking forward to more adventures. Merry Christmas.

Thanks TZ. She is really excited for the trip we are taking in a couple more days. She has the backpacking addiction bad!

Haha Thanks Red. We are doing a 4 day trip in Yosemite starting in a couple more days and we both are insanely excited to get out there. Merry Christmas!

That area looks so great for hiking! If only the snow was a little bit warmer and bears only grow one foot tall. Thanks for the tour of your hammock set up. You're going to have to do a bit of pre hike power training, so you can keep up with Christina. She's a natural born hiker/hanger too, by the way. I bet your dogs wouldn't be happy with you for leaving them at home. Anyway, Fronkey, that was an extra great trip report, thank you! Being 8128 miles away, I enjoyed all the bear talk.
