Greetings All!
Jason here, Been a long time backpacker, hiker and biker here in northwest New Jersey. I retired from the corrections field last February. Always packed a UL tent or tarp. Last April I needed some self discovery time so I hit the AT through PA. Needless to say a tent was more of a hassle to carry than it needed to be. So when I got home and knocked the trail dust off I began searching for a better alternative and stumbled upon you guys and gals out there sporting the old backyard tree slings. I found myself diving head first into thew whole thing and build my own bonnet style double with some 1.9 ripstop nylon that I found at a local fabric house. Well after a late night of sewing she was done and I was off to the wilds for a 3 day canoe and hike trip to the Adirondacks. I am in love! I can't think of any other way to go now and find myself dreaming of the trails in a new way. No more rocks, sticks, roots, mud or uneven ground to keep me from my sleep. I have to give props out to all you oldtimers out there and your vids on the MeTube. Great instructionals and tips. I have learned so much. Again, Thanks
